According to Yahoo! Entertainment, the six-time Emmy multi-hyphenate said, “Like most people, everything goes back to parents. I’m a child of immigrants and that unexpectedly became my secret weapon.”

Kaling, 43, shared that her parents have pushed her ambitions from the beginning.

She said, “I owe it to my parents but also to luck. I won the lottery in mentors with Greg Daniels and Howard Klein the producers of The Office.”
