Indian American star Senthil Ramamurthy, who plays a charismatic but dead father to the lead in Mindy Kaling's "Never Have I Ever", says his daughter his mortified by his "hot dad" tag after the series aired.
Playing tennis loving Mohan, whose story unfolds through flashbacks and dream sequences, was gratifying for Ramamurthy.
"It's been overwhelming and totally surprising," Ramamurthy, 45, told Entertainment Tonight in an interview.
"I don't think anybody thought that it would have this kind of response... It's blown me away."
