Mindy Kaling Announces 'The Mindy Project' Now On Netflix With Mini-Fashion Show

Mindy Kaling took to Instagram to make a video announcement about her popular show "The Mindy Project." While sharing her exciting news, Kaling, known for her fashionista side, showed off many of her colorful dresses.

"Guys, it's Mindy Kaling. I have incredible news," she begins the video while wearing a colorful, vibrant dress. "It's about a character near and dear to my heart."

She continues talking about her big news with constant wardrobe changes. "I don't know how to describe her. except as kind of an unhinged gynecologist," she continued. "She loved romantic comedies, her patients, laying on the floor drinking wine from a bra. She was a lot of things, but that b---h knew how to dress."

Of course, at this point in the video, her fans know she's talking about Dr. Mindy Lahiri in "The Mindy Project." "Mindy Lahiri is now on Netflix. Stream all six seasons of 'The Mindy Project' starting now," she concluded the video.

While many of Kaling's fans thought the announcement was going to be about a reboot of the popular show, the news was exciting to her followers. The show premiered in September 2012 and completed its six-season run on Hulu in November 2017, and many left comments on her post about wanting more.

One fan wrote, "I got excited and thought the show was getting a reboot ?," and more than 1,000 people liked that thought. Another fan added, "For a second I thought the show was coming back," and that comment also got more than 1,000 likes.

Another fan suggested, "Omg yayyyy!! But now we need new seasons plsss! One of the best shows for female empowerment. Please please pleaseeeee a little reboot with baby Leo all grown up?"

Kaling posted some clips and photos on Instagram from "The Mindy Project" in September to celebrate the show's 10th anniversary. "I love this show so much. The cast, crew and writers room remain some of my favorite and most important people in my life today," she began a caption of a video clip from the show. "I wanted to play a woman who was basically a good person, but also very insane, and had tons of stuff she needed to work on."

Her caption continued to explain how she envisioned the show to be. "Coming from The Office, I wanted the show to be packed with jokes, but also, like You’ve Got Mail or When Harry Met Sally, really romantic and made you want to live in New York City," she explained. "In addition, I wanted to wear head-to-toe amazing designer fits even though I wasn’t (and still am not) a size 2. I think we accomplished that! It will always be the most fun six years (117 episodes!) of my life! I’ll be sharing some of my favorite moments and scenes all week long!"

In another post about the show, she explains how fashion often took center stage. "Fashion was a huge part of The Mindy Project. I wanted Mindy Lahiri to look fabulous and eye-catching (subtlety was not her vibe lol)," she explained. "Of all her personality flaws, feeling insecure about her body was never one of her issues, and I wanted our show to communicate that stylishness transcended size."

The actress/writer/producer also explained how costume fittings sometimes took hours and that she always looked forward to them. The caption was to a carousel of 10 of Kaling's favorite outfits from the show.
