Mindy Kaling revealed the special role her dad, Avu Chokalingam, plays in her children’s lives in a special Father’s Day tribute.
“My dad shows up,” the Mindy Project alum, 44, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, June 18. “He was the one who drove me from the hospital after both my kids were born. To this day, he comes to the house at least once a day to play with the kids, take them to the farmers market, pick them up from school, or walk Spencer around the block in my son’s precious blue toddler car. He also says yes to my kids insane plans like ‘let’s spin Grandpa around in the round chair really fast.’ It’s funny how my love deepened for my dad when he became a grandfather, the role he was born to play.”
Kaling — who is mom to daughter Katherine, 5, and son Spencer, 2 — continued: “I love him to the moon and back, which is what he says to my kids. Whoever it is for your family – husband, partner, grandparent, mom, wife, step-parent, nanny, sibling, old friend – I hope you have someone out there who shows up for you and your family! It is the great blessing of our life. Now I’m gonna cry. Okay! Love to everyone today! ❤️”
The caption was shared alongside a photo of Kaling’s father seemingly sleeping in a chair while both Katherine and Spencer were on either side of him. (The Why Not Me? author is the only child of Avu and the late Swati Chokalingam.)
The Sex Lives of College Girls creator has been notoriously private about the identity of her children’s father. She has explained that she wants to wait until her kids are “old enough to talk about it” with her before revealing the details to the world.

Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer The livestream for Netflix’s third annual Tudum fan event garnered 78 million views across all of the streamer’s social platforms Saturday, marking this version — presented in front of 11,000 people in São Paulo, Brazil — as up 86% in viewership from last year’s 41.8 million views, and more than 203% from 2021’s initial 25.7 million. Netflix likely didn’t set out to bring the in-person Tudum crowd to tears during the three-hour event — but once they started flowing, it was a fortunate side effect the streamer proudly displayed on social media. “I wish you could have been there to convey the electricity of the audience and capture those moments,” Netflix chief marketing officer Marian Lee told Variety Tuesday about the streamer’s first attempt at pulling off Tudum as a real-time presentation with an in-person audience, following two years of the virtual-version of the event. “We posted on Twitter crying fans in the audience because it was just like that sort of Beatles moment every time one of their favorites came on stage, there were just sobbing tears in the audience.”

There has never been a TV character like Devi Vishwakumar. Lang Fisher and Mindy Kaling’s snappy and sweet teen comedy “Never Have I Ever” has long since felt like an example of the power of highly specific points of view in storytelling, and in its fourth and final season, its complex protagonist has only grown more dynamic – and chaotic.
