Comedian Aziz Ansari’s wonderful tribute to his dad is going viral and you need to read it

Just wonderful.

Paul Moore

Just wonderful.

Comedy fans have a new show to fall in love with because Aziz Ansari is back with a new show on Netflix and it’s absolutely gas. ‘Master Of None’ has just been released and having seen the first few episodes, it’s an absolute must watch for fans of shows like Louis and Seinfeld.

The show is unflinchingly honest when it comes to the topics of sex, race and the relationship that exists between parents and their kids but it seems that Ansari is just as honest and open in person as his on-screen persona.

Ansari was a guest on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to talk about the show and he decided to bring his dad along for the journey. After the show finished, the Parks and Recreation star posted this heartwarming message about just how much his father means to him and the sacrifices that he made to help his son.

This is great.

My dad took off most of his vacation time for the year to act in Master of None. So I’m really relieved this all worked…
