Malibu's Most Wanted - over the top accent, etc.
Harold & Kumar - no complaints, but still a lot of ethnic jokes and stuff
Superman Returns - finally a non-Indian role, though he had like 3 lines
Van Wilder - speaks for itself.
Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj - need i say more?
24 - so he plays an arab here, but still, same sort of typecast role because dumbass americans mistake indians for arabs frequently
Epic Movie - no intentions on seeing this so i cant comment..
Namesake - playing an Indian character


He is always casted in roles based on his ethnicity instead of his talent. He's funny and a good actor and should be more than a "Hey, we need an indian guy... lets get Kal Penn."
