The white guy who plays Apu does a bang up job.
The Indian accent is kinda hard because Indians put the emphasis on a different syllable than Westerners. Not easy for a white guy to pull off.

How much DNA do I need to have to be whatever I am personifying? Where do I get certified as such? Can I play more than 1 religious, race or whatever card. If I identify as a gender can I play that gender, and if so what does that transfer to other areas?
