Mindy Kaling expressed her gratitude towards her father, Avu Chokalingam, for his important role in her children's lives. In a heartfelt Father's Day tribute shared on Instagram, the 44-year-old Mindy Project alum highlighted her dad's consistent presence and support. Avu Chokalingam was there for her after both of her kids were born, driving her home from the hospital. Even now, he visits her house on a daily basis to spend quality time with the kids, take them to the farmers market, pick them up from school, and even take her son Spencer for walks in his beloved blue toddler car. Mindy also appreciates how her dad enthusiastically embraces her kids' wild ideas, such as spinning him around in a round chair. Becoming a grandfather has deepened Mindy's love and admiration for her dad, as she believes that he was destined for this role.

"Kaling expressed her deep affection for her father, who lovingly says 'I love you to the moon and back' to her children. She extended her wishes for everyone to have someone in their lives who supports and cares for their family, whether it be a spouse, parent, grandparent, sibling, or close friend. The photo accompanying her heartfelt message featured her father peacefully resting in a chair, with Katherine and Spencer by his side."

The creator of The Sex Lives of College Girls has maintained a reputation for being highly secretive when it comes to the identity of her children's father. She has expressed her desire to wait until her kids reach an age where they can openly discuss the matter with her before unveiling the details to the public.

"I am the sole caregiver for my children," shared Mindy Kaling with Marie Claire in August 2022. "I tend to lean towards being overly cautious, ensuring there are fewer reasons for them to hold any resentment towards me in the future."

Kaling dismisses the ongoing fan speculation about B.J. Novak being the father of her children, stating that it doesn't bother her. Despite their breakup in 2007, the former co-stars have maintained a strong and close relationship. Novak serves as the godparent to both of her kids, and their bond remains unaffected by the rumors. Kaling is unbothered by the gossip, emphasizing that it hasn't affected her happiness, her children, or her relationship with Novak. She is willing to accept the attention if it provides entertainment to others.
