Indo-Canadian actor Rizwan Manji’s flawless comedic style has beckoned audiences for years. The actor currently stars in Syfy‘s wonderfully whimsical “The Magicians” as Tick Pickwick, a wily council member of a realm known as Fillory. He’s on the underrated and genius comedy “Schitt’s Creek” as Ray Butani, real estate agent, travel agent, and photographer.
Perhaps, he is best recognized for his role as Rajiv Gidwani on NBC‘s “Outsourced,” the first of its kind American workplace sitcom set in India. He’s appeared on “Mr. Robot,” “Privileged,” “Backstrom” and “Better of Ted” on TV and “The Tiger Hunter” and “Wolf of Wall Street” on the big screen.
Through these performances, Manji has always proved his expertise in the field, acing the characters he’s played. We spoke to him about his roles on these shows, the significance of “Outsourced,” his Hollywood journey, and the state of South Asian and Muslim representation in the media.
