Sendhil Ramamurthy

Ramamurthy gave Heroes one of its most grounded presences as Mohinder, the scientist whose voiceovers literally framed the show's mythology. He brought warmth and gravitas to what could have been a dry exposition role, and his narration is honestly inseparable from my memory of that first season. It is great to see him keep working steadily, popping up in The Flash and bringing a wry charm as the dad on Never Have I Ever. He represents a wave of South Asian American actors who broke into mainstream genre TV, and he did it with quiet, dependable class.

Sendhil Ramamurthy is an American actor born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1974 to Indian-American parents. He is best known for playing geneticist Mohinder Suresh on the NBC series Heroes. He has since had recurring roles in series including Covert Affairs, Beauty and the Beast, The Flash, and Never Have I Ever.
