Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Kunal: The circle that I grew up in is very different from what you call a traditional Indian family. My parents are like, 'Yeah, go act!' and all Bohemian, and they're smoking cigarettes, which is something you very rarely see. That's maybe 10 percent of India and the rest of it is very conservative.
-
Kunal: (comparing himself to his character on "The Big Bang Theory) I also have a lot of nerdy elements in me and at the same time I act as a geek like him. I love playing video games and just like him I also like a lot of epic stuff.
-
Kunal: I always wanted to do acting, but could never find the right platform in India. While studying in the US, I found that there are a lot of opportunities for me to learn acting and that is how I got my bachelors in marketing and my diploma in acting.
