DELI BOYS - CATCHING UP WITH SERIES STAR POORNA JAGANNATHAN

The family business is anything but convenient in the new Hulu series, DELI BOYS!

When their convenience store-magnate father suddenly dies, a pair of pampered Pakistani American brothers lose everything and are forced to reckon with their Baba’s secret life of crime as they attempt to take up his mantle in the underworld. The series stars Asif Ali, Saagar Shaikh, Poorna Jagannathan, Alfie Fuller and Brian George.

Poorna Jagannathan stars as Lucky: Lucky is Baba’s right-hand woman. She can be very caring or a take-no-prisoners boss lady, depending on what’s needed. Her loyalty to Baba is tested along with her patience for Raj’s and Mir’s naïveté. And, she will shoot you.

Poorna previously starred in Netflix’s “Never Have I Ever.” Jagannathan starred opposite Joey King and Patricia Arquette in Hulu’s “The Act” as the pediatrician who begins to unravel the deception of Dede Blanchard. Additional notable TV credits include recurring roles on HBO’s hit series “Big Little Lies,” opposite Nicole Kidman and Meryl Streep; Hulu’s Golden GlobeⓇ-winning series “Ramy”; as well as HBO’s “The Night Of,” in which she played the mother to Riz Ahmed. Additional credits include “Wolfs” opposite Brad Pitt and George Clooney, “The Out-Laws,”and the Apple TV+ series “Defending Jacob.” Next, she begins production on the DC/HBO series “Lanterns.”
