Parul Gulati on Her Character
Parul Gulati, known for her roles in ‘POW – Bandi Yuddh Ke’ and ‘Haq Se’, portrays Pallavi, an ambitious young woman from Delhi with dreams of making it big. In an interview with ANI, Parul described her character’s pursuit of the coveted blue verification tick on social media platforms as a symbol of validation and acceptance.
“‘Blue Tick’ means getting verified, which for our characters, especially Pallavi, signifies making it into a world where Viraj (portrayed by Siddharth Nigam) is already a star. For Pallavi, getting that verification means becoming part of a community where she believes she can achieve something significant. It’s a form of validation for her,” Parul explained.
She further related her own experiences to the character, sharing how social media played a crucial role in her own career. “I found this character very relatable because I was discovered on Facebook. That’s how I came to Bombay and became an actor. Like Pallavi, I had big dreams and believed that social media could be the medium to achieve them.”
