Mom-to-be Mindy Kaling has a beautiful story about why it was “so special” to finish her Hulu show, “The Mindy Project,” while pregnant.
During an appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” that will air Friday, Kaling explained how she felt about wrapping up her show at such an eventful time in her life. Kaling, who portrays an OB-GYN, said that she found out her show got the green lit within the same hour that her mom, who was also an OB-GYN, died. She described the event as “such a strange thing.”
Now that the show is ending, Kaling feels her pregnancy marks a bittersweet conclusion, but also a beginning.
“It felt like the show kind of helped me and trained me to kind of grow up and become a mom,” she said. “It is really meaningful to me.”
