Mindy Kaling is far more than just an actress! The star first got her big break on-screen back in 2005 appearing in the hilarious film, 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin', and it was only uphill for Mindy from then on. She soon became a series regular on the hit show 'The Office', playing Kelly Kapoor, however one fun fact that many fans of the show do not know about, is that Mindy was also a writer for the show! She was the first and only person of color to write for 'The Office', which would be the first of many shows she'd create and write for.

With a whopping net worth of $24 million, Mindy has made most of her money off of the shows in which she has not only created, but starred on as well. For instance, shows such as 'The Mindy Project', 'Champions', 'Four Wedding & A Funeral' and 'Never Have I Ever', were all created by Mindy! Her most recent project, which was the hilarious Netflix show 'Never Have I Ever', was created based off of Mindy's own childhood, and features a cast of predominantly South Asian actors.
