Interest in a person appears only after he has done something out of the ordinary. For politicians, this is a kind of bright statement and not always adequate, for athletes - a victory in competitions, for an artist - the release of a film that attracted special attention of viewers and critics. For actor Kunal Nayyar, the sequel to The Big Bang Theory, which is still filming to this day, was such a breakthrough.
Born
April 30, 1981 in the city of Hounslow (Great Britain) in a family of immigrants from India was born a cute boy - Kunal Nayyar. But when he was 4 years old, his parents took him to New Delhi. There, the future star played excellent cricket and badminton. Participated in musical performances and theatrical productions. Tried his hand at writing plays. But he was more attracted to Western civilization.

Kunal Nayyar's hero Raj Koothrappali is a very sweet, funny and shy guy who literally goes numb at the sight of girls. And it doesn't even matter how she looks - beauty or Miss monster.
