"I don't talk trash, I talk smack. They're both different. Trash talk is all hypothetical like "Your mama's so fat, she could eat the internet", but smack talk is happening like right now, like, "You're ugly and I know it for a fact because I got the evidence all here"."

Kelly is Indian American and a Hindu, however she frequently makes incorrect statements about her heritage and religion. Her parents were brought together by arranged marriage, and has three sisters, along with a fourth one who died.

She tends to engage in long-winded, one-sided conversations on relatively trivial subjects, often to the chagrin of Toby Flenderson, with whom she shares the annex, situated off the main office. Sometimes, it appears that Kelly plays dumb, as evidenced by a conspiratorial wink to the camera in "Boys and Girls." She enjoys shopping, especially online, as seen in "The Coup" and in "Dunder Mifflin Infinity" and she also loves clothing, as seen in "The Coup" and "Women's Appreciation."

Kelly has a deep love for reality television. She's a fan of shows like "America's Next Top Model" and "The Bachelor," and her obsession with these programs often leads her to incorporate reality TV references and drama into her own life.

Kelly is known for her extreme emotional swings. She can go from being overly excited and enthusiastic to intensely angry or upset in a matter of seconds. Her mood swings are a recurring source of humor on the show.
