Los Angeles, Nov 26 (IANS) “The Big Bang Theory” actor Kunal Nayyar is reportedly facing legal action from his previous talent agency over allegations that he failed to pay the commission amount.

The 31−year−old, who plays Raj Koothrappali in the American sitcom, was looked after by staff at Diverse Talent Group (DTG) when he landed the role in 2007 and has paid a percentage of his wages in commission in subsequent years.

However, in a suit filed at County Superior Court in L.A. last week, lawyers for the company claim Nayyar stopped making payments from September last year, reports TMZ.com.

DTG says that the actor owns them roughly $100,000

Nayyar’s representative was unavailable for comment.
