Biography:
Rajesh "Raj" Koothrappali is a fictional character from the CBS television sitcom, The Big Bang Theory. He first appears in the show's pilot episode, which aired on September 24, 2007.
Raj, portrayed by actor Kunal Nayyar, is an astrophysicist originally from New Delhi, India. He works at Caltech, alongside his friends Sheldon Cooper, Leonard Hofstadter, and Howard Wolowitz.
A defining characteristic of Raj is his selective mutism, which initially renders him unable to speak to women unless he has consumed alcohol. This anxiety lessens over the course of the series, allowing him to interact with women sober, though often with some difficulty. Raj's cultural background and experiences as an immigrant are also explored throughout the show.
Throughout The Big Bang Theory, Raj struggles with finding romantic relationships and acceptance, but ultimately develops close friendships and experiences personal growth.
