Ouch: Experts at Yahoo TV easily confused by 'Indian' actors

“Sex Tape” and “Hot Tub Time Machine 2” star and stand-up comedian Kumail Nanjiani has some new material for his act.

That observation garnered a retweet from Kal Penn, the actual guy from the “Harold & Kumar” movies, who was born to Indian immigrant parents. Nanjiani was born in Pakistan and will be in the new “X-Files.” So who’s the star of “The Big Bang Theory”? That would be Kunal Nayyar, a British-Indian actor.

@kumailn Hmm, are you *positive* you're not on The Big Bang Theory? They have a pretty big cast.
