In her present role, Bajaria manages a $17 billion annual content budget and oversees teams in 27바카라countries.
During the past 12 months, she has brought Netflix바카라s 238바카라million members some of its most popular titles, including 'The바카라Night Agent' and 'Wednesday' -- the service바카라s most watched English-language original ever and a big contributor to the streamer바카라s 03바카라Emmy바카라nominations.
Bajaria recently secured 67th spot on Forbes list of the 100 Most Powerful Women in the World for 2023, alongside US Vice President Kamala Harris and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.
Born in London and having spent her formative years in Britain and Zambia, Bajaria moved to Los Angeles at the age of 8.
Prior to joining Netflix, Bajaria was president of Universal Television where she made history as the first woman of colour to oversee a studio.
She was also named to TIME's 100 Most Influential People list in 2022.
Kaling began her professional career as an intern on 바카라Late Night with Conan O바카라Brien,바카라 following which she moved on to write and perform in a variety of sketch comedy shows, including 바카라Matt and Ben바카라.
In 2004, she was hired as a writer and performer on the hit television show 바카라The Office바카라, and went on to create and star in her own television show, 바카라The Mindy Project바카라, which premiered in 2012.
She continues to write and produce on 'Secret Lives of College Girls' while she ramps up development thanks to a deal with Amazon MGM Studios for titles in her Mindy바카라s Book Studio book club, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
On the acting front, Kaling voiced Velma in Max바카라s controversial but renewed animated Scooby-Doo series of the same name. She continues to show up on 'The Morning Show'.
