The new story is about a popular TV actress Divya (Rubina), who puts aside her love life in her quest to build a career. Karan will play Raj, a disillusioned young man, who ends up marrying Sarita(Srishty), chosen by his family, after losing his first love.
Karan will be seen as an artist who is into theatre, as an actor, director, and writer and not into the family business at all despite being the only son with three sisters. About his character, Karan says, “My character is man of one word and doesn't talk to anybody much. He is an artist and enjoys what he is doing. The minute I heard the story and the narration about the character I was interested in the role. Just like the earlier Punar Vivaah this is going to be a progressive step further with the issue of remarriage woven in.”
Currently seen in SAB TV’s comedy show Hum Aapke Hain In-laws, Karan says, “I am not a method actor and I have a simple basic funda which is to follow the makers of the show. I sit for the narration, discuss my role with the writers and try and give my best to the character. For this particular role, I have decided to add body to the character which the earlier chapter of Punar Vivaah didn't have and add my flavor to it to allow the character to grow.”
The show will go on air from coming Monday on Zee TV.
