Actor and producer B.J. Novak may no longer be dating Mindy Kaling, but he sure knows how to make his former Office costar feel special.

After the release of Kaling's new film, Disney's A Wrinkle In Time, Novak posted a heartfelt tweet congratulating Kaling on her recent successes and commenting on how far the actress has come.


Novak, 38, noticed a magnificent display in a prominent location promoting the movie, which premiered last week.

"When I met @mindykaling she lived in a small apartment on Fairfax Ave," Novak wrote about her humble digs a few years ago. "This is what's in front of that building today. Congrats Mindy and a future congrats to all those who see you in it and are inspired to do great things."



Kaling, who's also a new mom, responded to Novak's tweet, "Oh my god I'm like full crying. I will never be mad at you again."



Twitter users responded as if the two had rekindled their Office roles. Fans want Kaling's Kelly Kapoor & Novak's Ryan Howard to get together again — in real life.



The sweet exchange on Twitter happened after the pair attended the Vanity Fair Oscars after party.



Whether or not the two of them are romantically involved in each other's lives is a bit of a mystery, but Kaling has described their "weird" friendship.

In 2015, she told In Style:

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.



In a 2014 interview with People, Novak summed up his friendship with Kaling as one that is "complicated."

A really complicated person and a really complicated friendship, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

Still, fans of the Steve Carell-helmed NBC show can't seem to dismiss the pair as just BFFs.



Kaling's Mindy Project co-star David Stassen commented on Novak's tweet, saying, "She lived next to a Burger King and didn't even know it. Very sad for her."



Another Mindy Project costar, Ike Barinholtz, couldn't miss an opportunity to have it his way with another dig at Burger King. He wrote, "That BK used to sell a whopper that had a fried chicken breast on top, it was messed up."



Fans praised the actress and writer, and thought the shout out from her special friend was well-deserved.



Still, fans want the two to officially LIKE like each other.

Karoline Leavitt Dragged After Making Mind-Numbing Claim About Trump's Tariffs Reversal

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is getting called out after she attempted to justify President Donald Trump's sudden reversal on his proposed tariffs, telling reporters that his actions make sense because he has a master plan to make the world bend the knee.

Trump declared a full 90-day suspension of all the “reciprocal” tariffs that took effect at midnight April 10—except for those on China—in a dramatic about-face from a president who had long championed his historically high tariff rates as permanent.
