Mindy Kaling defends his choice to support Aziz Ansari

On Friday night, Mindy Kaling participated in an animated show by Aziz Ansari, recently released from the shadows after the controversy that plagued the comedian and actor as a result of allegations of badual badault.

The show was a part of Ansari's Road To Nowhere tour and when Kaling decided to let the public know that she had sent a photo of her ticket stub, she was quickly criticized by fans who disapproved of her support for Ansari. .

She would soon go to the comments section to defend her choice to attend the screening of her friend and collaborator: "I am a feminist and taking up women's advocacy is very important to me. I do not live in British Columbia again. I think he did a good job doing it himself. "

BuzzFeed reports that Kaling was also busy removing comments from the post, including a comment comparing Ansari's allegations to those of R. Kelly.

"I think that comparing Aziz to R. Kelly was offensive and degrading to R. Kelly's victims, so yes, I deleted it," she said.

Another fan criticized the actress for defending Ansari, to which she replied, "I am a champion of women. I am also a champion of my friend and I do not believe that they exclude each other. "

In this regard, Ansari remained relatively silent for months, until he resumed speaking after an allegation appeared in an article in Babe.net in January 2018. He kept things pretty serious when He talked about it during a show in February according to Vulture.

"It made me think a lot and I hope I have become a better person," Ansari admitted. "If that has not only made me, but the other guys think about it, and they are just more thoughtful, more aware, and willing to make an extra effort, and they make sure that somebody else be comfortable right now, it's a good thing.
