Short hair don't care. Just a girl in her housedress drinking mini bar vodka, getting ready to go to her book publisher's party. Thanks @cnaselli for the dreamy cut. #thatbridgetjoneslife

Meanwhile, Kaling's comedy show The Mindy Project, was cancelled by Fox earlier in May after three seasons. However, the comedy series has been renewed by Hulu for a fourth season and will be getting 26 episodes as well.

During an interview with InStyle magazine, Kaling discussed her "weird" relationship with B J Novak, who she started dating while they both starred on The Office.

"I will freely admit: My relationship with B.J. Novak is weird as hell. He is not my boyfriend, but he is not my best friend. I guess you could describe our relationship as a 'romantically charged camaraderie with loud arguments,' but I don't think Facebook would accept this as a new status," she said.

The Inside Out star also talked about her idea of marriage.

"I don't have a particular urge to get married, but I do know with certainty that I want to have kids, because my relationship with [my mom] was so special," she added.
