The Big Bang Theory‘s Kunal Nayyar will be joining The Mindy Project as well to play the potential husband for Mindy.
Now that The Mindy Project has moved over to Hulu for it’s fourth season, Mindy’s character is getting quite a work-out. She has added Garret Dilliahunt, a doctor who disapproves of Mindy’s lifestyle (similar to Danny), has introduced her parents who are played by Sakina Jaffrey and Ajay Mehta (who don’t like Danny), and now will be having another man court her attentions in the form of Kunal Nayyar who will play Sendhil, hoping to win her affections.
Sendhil is a hedge fund manager, who of course will have approval by Mindy’s parents as an appropriate suitor for their daughter. He is charming and Danny will feel threatened by the proposed arranged marriage her parents set for Mindy, regardless of the fact that she is pregnant with his child.
There will be likely more suitors and potential engagements that lie ahead for Mindy, according to producers who have no idea how many episodes lie ahead.
