Based in Hollywood, California, but born and raised in small-town Connecticut, a neurotic child of weirdly-chill south Indian immigrant parents, Arun Narayanan (“uh-roon nuh-rye-nen”) navigates his personal experiences by creating funny and strange alternate realities populated by characters who struggle to connect with each other and with the world around them.
