Kiran gears up for his new innings!

Kiran Karmarkar, fondly remembered as Om of Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki is on seventh heaven! Apart from his long awaited character (mentally ill son) in Star Plus'sThodi Si Zameen Thoda Sa Aasman, he will soon be seen donning a new avataar in Sony's Man Mein Hai Vishwas' next episode and Star One's Saathi Re. Talking about Man Mein......, Kiran explains "It's a true story about a couple who are unable to conceive a child. The wife requests her husband (a doctor by profession) to visit the Haji Ali Baba, who is well known for his miracles, but then he refuses to do so. Months later the wife gives birth to a child and things change," explains Kiran. He further adds, "It's basically about how I (the husband) start believing in God." "I am an atheist," avers Kiran and taking up this role was nothing less than a challenge for the actor. "I don't believe in God, and am playing someone who starts believing in Him. It came across as a very challenging role as it's totally different from what my perspective is. It takes me on another level of acting altogether," states Kiran. He is not only very excited about his entry in Thodi Si.. this week, but also charged up about his new daily Saathi Re on Star One (earlier titled as Saptapadi). "I play father to the female protagonist, and my character is on the lines of Hitler. She goes to the extent of asking me, mogambo khush hua?" says the actor. Saathi Re is about a girl who is caught between two guys, and faces a problem with her kundali. The show also features Arjun Punjj, Aamir Dalvi and debutant Parakh Madan. Other than television, Kiran keeps doing theatre on and off. This talented actor has definitely blocked his appointment diary post the Om-act!
