Kumar Pallana (born in central India, 1919) is an Indian character actor best known for his work with director Wes Anderson in three films: Bottle Rocket, Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums. While he had a large supporting role in Bottle Rocket as a talkative member of the robbery crew, Pallana took on much smaller roles in the subsequent films. Pallana also had a scene-stealing role as a feisty janitor in Steven Spielberg's The Terminal.
Before becoming an actor, Pallana was the proprietor of a local coffee shop in Dallas called The Cosmic Cafe, a frequent hangout for director Anderson and co-writer/star Owen Wilson. Anderson recalled Pallana had many interesting stories to tell him since he was a kid.
