Who Is Erick Avari’s Wife?

In 2017, Avari was seen in both the U.S conspiracy thriller Project Eden: Vol. I and, as Nicodemus, in the television drama series The Chosen.

In 2014, Avari voiced Master Rahool in the science fiction video game Destiny.

In January 2009, he played a cell-phone salesman in Paul Blart: Mall Cop, and in October 2009, he was cast as Omar on Days of Our Lives.

Beginning in the autumn of 2006, a photograph of Avari and a recording of his voice have been used in the role of Chandra Suresh in Heroes. He did not appear onscreen until the episode “Seven Minutes to Midnight”, as his character is part of the backstory and had died before the events of the pilot. When his character does appear, it is only in flashbacks until the episode “Six Months Ago”, when the story centers on six months before the events of the pilot episode. In this episode, Suresh moves to New York and contacts people on “the list” he generated of those he believes to have special genetic aberrations.

Over the course of his career, Avari has portrayed representatives of more than 24 ethnicities. As of November 2006, he has appeared in 33 feature films and over 70 television episodes. Avari has appeared with Brent Spiner in four different productions: Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987), Independence Day (1996), The Master of Disguise, and Home Alone 4 (2002). He performed opposite Richard Gere in a drama film based on a true story: Hachi: A Dog’s Tale, in which he played Jasjeet, an Indian hot dog vendor.

Avari was scheduled to reprise in his role as Kasuf in the Stargate SG-1 Season Six finale “Full Circle”, but was unable to do so due to his commitment to Dragnet (2003).

Avari is known for his roles in such films as The Beast (1988), Encino Man (1992), Stargate (1994), Independence Day (1996), The Mummy (1999), Planet of the Apes (2001), Home Alone 4 (2002), Mr. Deeds (2002), Daredevil (2003), and Flight of the Living Dead: Outbreak on a Plane (2007). He is one of only two actors, along with Alexis Cruz, to appear in both the original Stargate movie and the spin-off series Stargate SG-1 (three episodes). Before arriving in Los Angeles in 1991, his extensive work onstage garnered him praise from theater critics across America, most notably as Vasquez, in ‘Tis Pity She’s a Whore with Val Kilmer at the Joseph Papp Public Theater, and as Sir Richard at The Guthrie Theater’s memorable production of The Screens.
