Briefly spotted funny man Aziz Ansari in the beginning of the trailer for Get Him to the Greek. Between like 4 or 5 movie appearances in the last year, with more in the works, and his starring role in the cast of NBC's Parks and Recreation, I'd say his career is in a pretty good place.
And if you haven't seen his standup special Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening
, it's pretty frickin' funny. Oh, and check him out in this recent Fresh Air interview: Aziz Ansari: The Funniest Tool In 'Parks' Utility Shed. No joke, he gets Terry Gross to say "tatties" -- whatever the hell that means.
