Okay it says here that Deep Roy was born in Nairobi which is the capital of Kenya (unless there's a Nairobi in India?) yet in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005 movie) it claims he is of Indian descent. Here, too, it says he was born in Nairobi but claims he is Indian. What am I missing here, anyone care to enlighten me?

There are large Indian populations in various parts of Africa, particularly in Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya and South Africa. Ghandi, for instance, worked for several years as a lawyer in South Africa. Much like an Indian American might identify as being of Indian descent, Roy is a Kenyan of Indian descent. Pburka 00:01, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is minor, but I wish people would distinguish between members of the great ape family and monkeys. They aren't the same and to claim that his characters in Planet of the Apes are "monkeys" is factually incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.2.9.38 (talk) 04:27, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Talk about an obscure credit.[1]

That is kind of disturbing. But work's work, I guess. --Rachel Cakes 07:12, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB and Amazon.com list Bumper Robinson in the role of Zammis, and not Deep Roy. I have removed the Enemy Mine Filmography entry

WTF does 'similar parents' mean? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.89.210.158 (talk) 19:11, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't make sense. I deleted it. Lukas 02:38, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Oompa Loompa article describes Roy as a "dwarf actor". This is something I would expect to find mentioned in this article. However, since it isn't, and neither do any of the links make any explicit statement, is the Oompa Loompa article wrong? The fact that the Oompa Loompas appear small on screen means nothing, as they were digitally composited in anyway.

Also, if the Oompa Loompa article is correct, what would be the currently-acceptable euphemism to use on this page? PeteVerdon 14:15, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Well, it's listed now. (Probably has been for a while.) --V2Blast (talk) 10:56, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deep isn't a dwarf. Dwarfs suffer from one of a wide variety of genetic conditions (the different types of dwarfism) that restrict their growth and also tend to inflict other medical problems. Deep is simply someone who stopped growing at a very short height - there's no medical condition that caused it, he simply is at one extreme of the normal human height scale. In the past he'd be described as a midget - "a short person with relatively average bodily proportions in comparison with other human beings" - though that term has become less acceptable thanks to idiots using it as an insult, and I'm not sure what the currently acceptable term is. 109.153.241.132 (talk) 10:28, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The use of the word "notable" should be discouraged in Wikipedia articles. It is a self-justifying word, and unnecessary.

A cameo appearance has a famous person being on-screen for a few moments. A minor role is not the same thing as a cameo. Mr Roy, while a fine actor, is not a celebrity. Consider that his most notable role is as an Oompah Loompah. Ronstew (talk) 04:35, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what a border guide is but i think they meant to say guard, Anyhow...To anyone who has been through Egypt he is only manning a checkpoint, as is clearly stated in the Transformers 2 movie. They have these to make sure you have the appropriate visa to enter certain areas (from Sinai to mainland for example). Anyhow, its annoying because that movie was full of geographical errors at that point, but the checkpoint was actually somewhat realistic. 75.73.13.212 (talk) 01:17, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No sources seem to report Deep Roy's birthday but on Tim Burton's Facebook page there is a "Happy Birthday Deep Roy" post dated January 26th. Best clue I've seen yet and I saved a screen shot of it. Is that adequate citation for listing his birthday as January 26th? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mt1955 (talk • contribs) 04:25, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB says January 26, 1949, but we now have 1 December 1957. -- Beardo (talk) 04:33, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Was I the only one who noticed the extreme amount of misinformation at the top of this article? It said his name was Ethan Pillay, and that he was know professionally as BARRY (yes in all caps) I've attempted to clean it up a bit and replace it with the correct information, but I just want to know what happened?

I don't know the proper format for citing YouTube videos, but an interview with the actor at https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q25jfEsXzZc provides the facts with some intercut behind the scenes photos. Claudia (talk) 14:47, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand there has been some confusion over DR's date of birth, but if the current date is correct, he dropped out of accountancy studies at the age of 18 (so c 1975) and then began his stage career five years earlier, at 13. Either the birthday or the other date is wrong (or both, of course). MongogramForCandy (talk) 18:57, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. 1957 can't possibly be correct if he was doing professional standup in 1970. Does anyone have a way to access the cited reference for the 1957 date? Powers ^T 02:07, 27 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
