Mindy Kaling Eyes Acting Comeback After Hiatus

Mindy Kaling has expressed her interest in returning to acting after a hiatus, revealing she is considering creating a new show where she can both act and write, similar to her approach on The Mindy Project. She noted that superstition played a role in her absence from on-screen roles in her own productions, believing her shows succeeded without her acting involvement. Kaling reflected on her early Hollywood career and the impact of the play Matt & Ben, which helped launch her writing career with The Office. Ben Affleck, whom she portrayed in the play, has responded to the portrayal with good humor. Her latest project, Running Point on Netflix, highlights her skills as a creator and producer. Industry peers, including Kate Hudson, have praised Kaling's dedication and her talent for building strong creative teams.
