Punjabi Pride On-Screen- Mohit Malik’s Evolution into Baatein Kuch Ankahee Si’s Kunal Malhotra
Star Plus’s new show ‘Baatein Kuch Ankahee Si’ is a fusion of Punjabi and Marathi culture. While Sayli Salunkhe portrays a Marathi Mulgi in the show, Mohit Malik plays a Punjabi Munda in the show. While Mohit is Punjabi in real life as well, Sayli is also Maharashtrian in real life, just like her fictional character. His character in the show hails from Delhi, which is similar to his real life tale.
Mohit Malik shares light on the same, “Potraying a Punjabi munda comes naturally. I have a typical Punjabi accent which I know I’ll ace. My lingo is very straight. It is neither from Delhi or Punjabi, but it did not take a lot of effort for me to mould myself into it as per the requirements of the character and script. I belong to a similar business background, just like Kunal Malhotra from Baatein Kuch Ankahee Si. I take out the Delhi aggression sometimes for my character, as I do that in real life too. I have been brought up in a similar way as the Kunal, this is something I relate to in real life as well.”
A musical, fictional love saga, Baatein Kuch Ankahee Si is produced by Rajan Shahi and revolves around two middle-aged people from different backgrounds and how their worldviews collide when they meet, with music set to play an important role in their journey.
Baatein Kuch Ankahee Si is all set for its release on 21st August from 9:00 PM on Star Plus. The show will have Mohit Malik and Sayli Salunkhe in the lead.
