Kaling, who is famous for her role in her own TV series, ‘The Mindy Kaling Project’ replied to Ahmed’s tweet when she said, “Riz! I am obsessed with this comic book, I’ve read them all. I love Kamala Khan.”
Kamala Khan AKA Ms. Marvel is a Pakistani-American teenager living in New Jersey who finds she has exceptional shape shifting abilities and decides to become a super heroine following in the footsteps of her idol, Carol Danvers who is Captain Marvel.
