30 Rock's Maulik Pancholy Comes Out as Gay

Maulik Pancholy has come out as a gay man in a feature for this year’s Out100.

“I just celebrated my nine-year anniversary with my partner,” the 39-year-old 30 Rock actor shared with the mag. “It feels like a nice time to be celebrating something like that, especially on the heels of the DOMA and Prop 8 decisions.”

Maulik recalls as a child he always wanted to be an actor and he bad a big deal over accidentally cutting himself with a switchblade.

“Instead of going for help and saying, ‘Hey, I cut my thumb, can I get a Band-Aid?’ I did a death scene in the bathroom. It was my big moment!” he said.
