Happy Birthday Nakuul Mehta: Reasons why he is more than a conventional ‘HERO’

Nakuul Mehta, a man with several hats, turns a year older today. 2021 is going to be extra special for the actor with him all set to embrace parenthood with Jankee Parekh. Before that, the actor has not only managed to enchant his fans onscreen but has always used his position to spread awareness about social issues. When most play safe, he tends to hit it out of the park by taking a stand and calling a spade a spade. On his birthday, we list down reasons on why he is more than your conventional ‘hero’.

For years, thanks to Bollywood, we have been fed with an idea of ‘hero’ who is supposedly macho, a protector, an angry young man with hardly any redemption qualities. While actors portray similar characters onscreen, many tend to live their character outside as well. Nakuul shatters those perceptions, and how! While he played the most romantic hero on screen, he makes sure to not let that control his persona on social media. His individuality is what separates him from the crowd, a trailblazer in true sense.

As an actor, Nakuul has always tried to push the boundaries and ensure he offers something new to his audience. Among other things, he played Aditya (Pyaar Ka Dard), Shivaay (Ishqbaaaz), Sumer (Never Kiss Your Best Friend), each character being categorically different from other. While his acting prowess needs no validation, the actor has not limited himself to just that. He tried his hand at direction (I Don’t Want TV), collaborating and co-producing short films or projects.

Recently, during the lockdown, the actor shared his poignant poems which he collaborated on with his friend Ajax Singh. The poems are a mirror to the current state of democracy and society in our country, which have been presented with a dash of wit by Mr. Mehta and his team. While staying mum on current affairs is an easy way road, Nakuul has always advocated for things he believes in. We told you, he is not your conventional hero but more.

Not just this, the actor is also the most supportive husband. Jankee, an independent artist, fell in love with Mr. Mehta during their teenage years and the two have been together since then. Nakuul has always promoted Jankee and her work, and also accompanied her when needed. The two are #couplegoals in real.

While most celebrated actors would turn to big designers for ensembles, Nakuul has been one of those who promotes newer and small businesses by lending his voice and support, without compromising on his style. Many would agree that his sense of style is definitely what sets him apart among many other reasons.

If this is not it, his witty comments, captions and of course, engaging posts on social media are reasons enough to admire this rising star.
