Apu Nahasapeemapetilon is a recurring character in the American animated television series The Simpsons. He is an Indian immigrant proprietor who runs the Kwik-E-Mart, a popular convenience store in Springfield, and is known for his catchphrase, “Thank you, come again.”[1] He was formerly voiced by Hank Azaria and first appeared in the episode “The Telltale Head“.

A 2017 documentary, The Problem with Apu, written by and starring comedian Hari Kondabolu, criticized the character as a South Asian stereotype. Azaria reacted to this by announcing that he and the production crew of the series agreed for him to step down as the voice of the character. Simpsons creator Matt Groening first stated in August 2019 that Apu would remain on the show.


Akaash Singh is a stand-up comedian, podcaster, and actor. You can hear him along with Andrew Schulz on the “Flagrant 2” podcast, and watch his new special, “Bring Back Apu,” available now on YouTube.
