Actor Mukul Dev is going to enter Kumkum as an obsessed lover Pulkit soon.
Explaining his character, Pulkit tells us, "It is like a blast from the past kind of thing. I fell in love with KumKum during our college days but she never felt like that and rejected him which hurt him a lot. He could not bear that rejection and was heartbroken. Now he has entered her life again and his only motive is to make her husband Sumeet's life miserable."
Pulkit is a painter by profession but Mukul did not find playing it difficult. "I make sketches in real life too so it was not so difficult for me to portray a painter in the show,' he reveals.
The buzz is that his role is somewhat similar to SRK in Darr. While Mukul admits that there are a lot of famous obsessed lovers played by good actors, he adds, "I will try to show it differently. I will try and find out about this character's past - why is he behaving like that and whether has he faced rejection from all women in his life. I will not only try to learn his physicality but also his psychology."
About his track, Mukul says, "Nobody used to like his paintings and it was only Kumkum who used to praise him a lot. So he was naturally attracted towards her in the past. But then she rejected him. After many years also he could not forget that and decided to come back in his life. Initially, he tries to impress her husband so he can enter their life. What attracted me about this role is the negativity and unpredictable nature of the character. We are working on a graph of it so let's see how it works "
Mukul is making his comeback TV after a long time. In the show his daughter and Daimaa are going to help him get Kumkum back in his life.
