- Bringing forth another hard-hitting concept, COLORS’ upcoming show Molkki outlines a prevalent custom in Haryana. Wherein due to the skewed sex ratio, ‘Dulhan’ is bought by people in exchange for money
- Molkki is the story of a 18-year-old Purvi, who hails from a small village in Uttar Pradesh. As a part of the bride buying custom, without her knowledge she is married off to a widower twice her age, Virender, a middle-aged man who owns vast lands and is the Sarpanch of the village
- The show will see newbie television actor PriyalMahajan play the leading role as Purvi and Amar Upadhyay will play Virender
- • Purvi, played by PayalMahajan, is a responsible girl who has a heart of gold and fights all her battles with dignity
- • While it’s the custom that binds them together, but is it possible for a relationship born out of a transaction to blossom into love?
- Commenting on this, PriyalMahajan as Purvi said,“My character Purvi is a responsible young woman who has a very strong moral compass.. It’s an honor to play such a dynamic character and share screen space with some of the best actors from the industry. The combination of Balaji and COLORS is nothing less than a dream come true. I hope the audience will shower us with immense love and support.”
- Commenting on this Amar Upadhyay who plays VirenderPratap Singh said, “The concept of Molkki is unique, powerful and something that has never been shown on television before. As VirenderPratap Singh, I am playing a larger than life character who is a powerful landowner and a sarpanch of 50 villages. He is a very strong and serious person whose life undergoes a drastic emotional change when Purvi. It’s a great feeling to be associated with COLORS again after 8 years. It is also amazing to work again with Balaji and EktaKapoor since we share such a history of success together. I am sure we will repeat that this time as well”
