PANEL DISCUSSION
LAUGHING AT OURSELVES: A Conversation with Actors and Creatives
Presented by SAG-AFTRA National Ethnic Employment Opportunities Committee, EEO & Diversity Department and SAGIndie
Kunal Nayyar (actor, Big Bang Theory), Hannah Simone (actor, New Girl), Sarayu Rao (actor, Monday Mornings), Luvh Rakhe (writer, New Girl), and Sunil Nayar (Executive Producer, Revenge) are some of the top acting and creative names in television today. Moderated by Parvesh Cheena (actor, Outsourced), this lively and honest discussion explores the panelists' triumphs, heartbreaks, and rise in the industry, where they go from here as well as the choice many of them have made to be multi-hyphenates (i.e. actor-writer-producers) in the business. They'll reflect upon the growing representation of Indians in television, and the reasons why comedy has been a popular genre for discovering South Asian talent. Join them as they reveal how they draw from their own life experiences and their ability to laugh at themselves both personally and culturally-- to create characters and tell stories that have led them to on-screen success.
