The actor told People,
“When I got 18, my parents, who are immigrants from India, were like,
‘Maybe try something that’s a bit more stable.’
Even as a kid, I never seriously viewed acting as something that I could do for a living.”
After graduating in Public Health from The University of Texas in Austin,
Pisharody felt it was now or never to achieve his aspirations.
As in the film, he packed his suitcase and headed to Los Angeles to follow his goal.

Dae uploaded a picture of her and her husband detailing the starting point of Pisharody’s profession.
She captioned the shot, “I’m so unbelievably proud of @anirudh.pisharody.
When he first joined me in LA, he was still studying for med school — sad and unfulfilled.”
She said, “Taking a leap of faith to achieve his aspirations was never easy,
and we’ve faced our lowest lows together. I recall telling him one day
I’m going to see you on one of these LA billboards, I promise, I know it! Today that dream came true.”
Dae closed her comment by stating, “I’m SO thrilled the world finally gets to meet you and your heart of gold.”
The duo has been together since 2015,
and finally, on July 4, 2019, the actor went down on his knees and proposed to Dae.
After a few years of getting engaged, Pisharody, via his Instagram,
announced to the world that he had gotten married.
In an Instagram post dated February 15, 2021, the star wished her wife
Happy Valentine’s Day and highlighted their journey of how far they had come together.
The post includes a picture and a long comment where he wrote,
“From meeting in a grocery store parking lot to dating and having two gerbil dogs,
to being married, the past 6 years have been a whirlwind of thrills and excitement.”
He concluded, “I can’t wait to see what our future contains.
You’ve been there for me through thick and thin, and if it wasn’t for you
I would never have tapped into my artistry and delved into this industry.”
