My Take
Pulkit Samrat's career arc is one I genuinely respect: the slow climb. He spent years in Hindi television, starting with a daily-soap juggernaut in 2006, before reaching cinema with Bittoo Boss in 2012 and breaking through as Hunny in Fukrey a year later. In an industry that often anoints stars overnight through famous surnames, Samrat earned his place rung by rung, picking up an Indian Telly Award along the way. I also appreciate that a model-handsome leading man committed so fully to ensemble comedy instead of guarding his image. Late bloomers who built their foundations in television tend to last, and I would bet on his durability.
