*Mindy Kaling’s mention of Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) on her Hulu series may prompted a series of follow up tweets that may lead to a future dinner date.
The twitter exchange was sparked by a recent episode of “The Mindy Project,” when Kaling’s character Dr. Mindy Lahiri said, “Cory Booker? I can’t believe he came. I guess anything to get out of Newark, huh?”
Booker clapped back, tweeting to Kaling, “Ouch! “heard Dr. Lahiri dissed Newark last night … & I disagree,” to which Kaling responded that the mention means that he is actually cool.
Ouch! ?@MindyKaling, heard Dr. Lahiri dissed Newark last night ?… @VogueMagazine & I disagree ✌?: https://t.co/2wP7ZqJKQd (I still ❤️U!) pic.twitter.com/FSwfkxenQJ

Senator, if Mindy Lahiri shades it, it means we know it’s cool. Thanks for the ❤. It’s mutual! https://t.co/KW2ibviREc

Booker then responded, “You are making my day! Thanks for the clarification. And if the [heart emoji] is really mutual… Come have dinner with me in Newark? #PleaseSayYes”
Kaling responded tweeting, “Yes. Now let me get the PATH train schedule.”
The PATH train official Twitter account saw an opportunity to join in and tweeted its current schedule.

But Booker responded saying Kaling is worth sending a Lyft for instead.
? ?Thank you! PATH train is awesome when you are Jersey bound. But you are @Lyft worthy! I will send one to you for the door to door. https://t.co/hTHqqyXLZn
