Kunal Nayyar finally opens up about Raj Koothrappali's unsatisfying ending in 'TBBT'

Kunal Nayyar is most known for playing the role of Raj Koothrappali in the massively popular sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Raj was one of the four main cast members who were part of the show since the very first season. However, unlike his peers, Raj did not find his true love by the end of the show. Moreover, his career was also going nowhere unlike Sheldon and Amy, who won a Nobel Prize for Physics. 

This bitter-sweet ending for Raj disappointed many fans of the show who wanted to see a happy ending for the character. Now, a year later, actor Kunal Nayyar has finally opened up about his opinion on Raj's divisive ending in The Big Bang Theory Season 12. In an interview with Metro UK, Kunal Nayyar talked about Raj Koothrappali's unsatisfying end in the show.

However, Kunal Nayyar added that the ending of The Big Bang Theory was not really the final ending for Raj Koothrappali's story.
