Big Bang Theory’s Kunal Nayyar talked with Matthew Sardo about his new book Yes, My Accent Is Real, the conversation led to a dialogue about how celebrity culture has changed society and how Nayyar hopes to inspire one person to quit their job and follow their dream. Nayyar mentioned that celebrity status has a double edged sword. “I feel that movie actors or TV actors used to be celebrated and now everyone is waiting for us to make a mistake so they can pounce on us. So they can write so funny piece in TMZ or watch us say something a hundred times on YouTube,” said Nayyar. Nayyar hopes that people realize that everyone’s journey is human. “There is no one way to get what you want to get. I really hope that someone reads this book and is sitting and their office and has always dreamt about doing something and quit and do it,” said Nayyar.
