Mindy Kaling‘s brother claims his famous sister “tried to sabotage” his new, self-published book — which serves a harsh criticism of affirmative action — according to Page Six.

“You play a slut on national TV, and you think this [book] will bring shame on the family?” Vijay Jojo Chokal-Ingam said in an interview with the online media outlet, recounting words exchanged with his sibling during an argument.

He claims that Kaling — famous for roles in Disney-Pixar’s “Inside Out,” “The Office” and as the lead in her own sitcom “The Mindy Project” — said the book would “bring shame” on their family.

His memoir, “Almost Black: The True Story of How I Got Into Medical School by Pretending To Be Black,” details just what the title indicates: how Chokal-Ingam allegedly took advantage of an affirmative action loophole by posing as a black student in order to have an easier time getting into medical school.

According to Page Six, Kaling has claimed to have zero involvement with her brother’s plan to expose discrimination against Asian-Americans and whites. Chokal-Ingam, however, told the outlet that she was aware of his scheme the whole time.

Kaling’s brother went on to make other potentially embarrassing claims against the six-time Emmy nominated actress.

He said in the Page Six interview that his sister secretly asked her contacts at Hollywood agency William Morris Endeavor not to represent her ex-boyfriend’s sister, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker. (Her ex is Benjamin Nugent from the 2016 BBC series “River City.”)

“My sister has engineered similar public and private plots against her many frenemies in Hollywood,” added Chokal-Ingam, who said the two “don’t talk” and that their falling out happened two years ago.

He eventually dropped out of med school, according to the article, and is now a college admissions consultant. “But I don’t recommend anyone pretend they are black,” said Kaling’s brother of his new gig.

A Victorious Verdict: "The People v. OJ Simpson" won big on Sunday night's show. Thus, Fox and FX's joint bash at the Vibiana was the party after the show. In the northeast corner of the patio at Ryan Murphy's table, Fox TV Chairman/CEO Gary Newman, winner Sarah Paulson, Murphy, and Fox TV Chairman/CEO Dana Walden took a victory lap.

"It was one giant, crazy, Hollywood party," is how the O.J. Simpson prosecutor summarized her Emmys experience. Clark cited John Oliver and Amy Schumer as her standout celebrity introductions. She also told TheWrap she's working on crime fiction and a pilot for NBC. Angela Bassett is at the far right.

Here's a bigger company of those going home happy: Cuba Gooding Jr., FX Networks CEO John Landgraf, Sarah Paulson, Murphy, Newman, and Walden at the FX/Fox party which shut down streets and took over the Vibiana Cathedral. Heinekens flowed amongst champagne, chicken-fried steak and macaroni and cheese, as tunes like Michael Jackson's "Off the Wall" got a dance circle going, Louie Anderson relaxed in a throne-like chair on the patio, and "Fargo" breakout Jesse Plemons had a steady stream of greeters on the patio.

"Game of Thrones" capped the telecast with a Best Drama win, and hit the HBO mega-bash at the Pacific Design Center in force. Inside the water-themed playground, showrunner David Benioff hung with lead Emilia Clarke and HBO chairman and CEO Richard Plepler. Clarke grabbed Tom Hiddleston for a cheek-smooch on the stairs as she was leaving and Tom was arriving around 11:25 p.m.

Netflix netted 9 Emmys in total, but their biggest win may be the coming out party for "Stranger Things". The child stars slayed the industry crowd as the Emmy's audience warm-up with a rendition of "Uptown Funk". At the Governors Ball, Millie Bobby Brown and Caleb McLaughlin cozied up to "Unreal" nominee Constance Zimmer.
