Actor Karan Kundrra, who is remembered as Arjun Punj from the show Kitani Mohabbat Hai, credits his film career to his stint on the small screen and says working in television makes a difference.
Karan made his Bollywood debut with the 2017 film Mubarakan and in 2018 featured in the horror movie 1921.
Asked if he gives credit to his work on the small screen for the recognition he has achieved, Karan told IANS here, “Absolutely… There are people who know me because I have done all of my other shows. So, yes TV makes a big difference and also I think the reason I was cast in some of these films was because of what I have done on television.”

Does he want to star in films in the romance genre?
“Beggers are not choosers. I would want to work with good directors. I’ve had Vikram Bhatt in two films and Anees Bazmi for Mubarakan. Right now my focus is to be working with as many directors as possible it’s not what I want to play because now I’m an actor and I have proven myself,” said the actor, known for playing a lover boy on the small screen.
The 33-year-old believes that he wouldn’t be typecast in the industry as he has featured in films of comedy and horror genre.
“I don’t think I would be typecast because of my TV background (of playing a lover boy). I might one day get up and say if there is a good negative, I would like to kill it,” he added.
