We don't know whether it would be more correct to call Aziz Ansari an actor or a comedian - and we don't mean that as an insult. It's a rare gift to be people to make people laugh, but it's a quality that Ansari seems to have in abundance. He seems to be a genuinely funny and charming man, and so we're happy to see him doing so well for himself. The first time most of us became aware of him was when he landed a part in 'Parks and Recreation,' which he used as a platform for bigger and better things.
In more recent years, Ansari has been fostering a close relationship with Netflix, who have bought into him in a big way. He makes many exclusive shows for them, including 'Master of None,' which has met with a great deal of critical acclaim. Not bad for a guy who's only 5 foot 6!
