The American actress, 46, looked sensational as she displayed her trim new figure in a blue embellished gown while posing up a storm for cameras at the star-studded event, held at Nya Studios West.

The Office veteran has lost 40lbs in recent years thanks to a very simple exercise routine: she told Prevention in 2024 that she started power walking all the time, even when on business calls. 

In January, Mindy addressed her major  transformation in a social media post while sharing throwback photos from nearly a decade ago. 

The actress admitted she 'almost didn't post because I look different,' but avoided touching on the ongoing rumours that she used weight loss jabs to lose weight. 

For the past year, she has consistently shown off her slimmer physique amid her personal health journey. 

The screenwriter and producer partook in the 2016 challenge, in which social media users posted throwback photos to reflect on the past decade. 

'I saw this 2016 trend and loved it and almost didn't post because I look different but these pics are too fun not to share,' she wrote in her caption before adding in parentheses about other people feeling the same. 

In 2023, she opened up about how she started on her health journey after having children. 

She is a mother to Katherine 'Kit' Swati Kaling, eight, Spencer 'Spike' Avu Kaling, five, and Anne Kaling, who .

'Look, I know I'm clearly materialistic, but the best birthday gift to me, for the rest of my life, are these two guys,' she wrote about her two eldest kids on Instagram in 2023, the year before she welcomed her third child. 

'I was never a "kid" person. When my mom passed through, it just clicked in me: I wanted kids with such intense certainty. I bet some of you can relate.'

'I'm just trying to be present for them (hard for me! I'm impatient!), being up for anything (again hard for me, I am not whimsical!), and stay healthy for these two guys (ALSO hard! I just want to eat cheesesteaks every meal in front of the TV) for until I'm an old gray skeleton they're like "Mom, you gotta go." 

'My doctor told me that this year I was the healthiest I've been in years. That's a pretty d*** good gift, right?'

In April 2022, she told ET that she lost weight without limiting herself to which foods she can or cannot eat. 

'I eat what I like to eat. If I do any kind of restrictive diet, it never really works for me. I just eat less of it. I wish there was something more juicy or dynamic about the way that I've lost a little bit of weight, but that's the way I've done it.' 

The Running Point co-creator has never admitted to taking a trendy GLP-1 agonist drug but, rather, credited her slimmed down frame to portion control, increased hydration, weight training, yoga and 15 to 20-mile walks per week. 

'In my 20s, I had this very certain idea of what "being fit" really meant,' Kaling told E! News in 2022. 

'You had to run a seven-minute mile and eat this amount of carbs and proteins. It took me a long time to realise that there are lots of different ways to be fit.'
