'Main hi Prem hoon kya?': Rohit Mehta on the hilarious confusion around his character's name in Divya Prem
Rohit Mehta Rohit Mehta , who has been part of shows like Yeh Hai Chahatein and Kabhi Kabhie Ittefaq Sey, is currently seen as Gajendra in Divya Prem: Pyaar aur Rahasya Ki Kahaani. In the show, he plays the younger brother in the family and the beloved chacha of the male lead, Prem (played by Suraj Pratap Singh). Speaking about his role, he says, 'Gajendra is a layered character. While he loves his family, he's also human, emotional, and sometimes vulnerable to outside influence. At times, swayed by his wife Malini, he finds himself at a crossroads, caught between loyalty and manipulation. The creative team has hinted at many shades of Gajendra that will unfold as the story progresses, and I'm excited to explore them.' His previous characters — Jagdish in Yeh Hai Chahatein and Pratyush in Kabhi Kabhie Ittefaq Sey — were grounded in family drama and realism. With Divya Prem, he steps into the world of fantasy and the supernatural. 'After working in family dramas, this is my first time doing a show that blends supernatural powers, fantasy, thrill, and mystery. It's an exciting challenge as an actor to explore such a unique genre,' he shares. Ask him about a memorable moment from the show, and Rohit bursts into laughter. 'When I got selected for Divya Prem, our casting director Asad Shaikh told me the character's name was Prem chacha. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo After about a month, the EP called and said, 'Sir, your shoot starts in two days.' I asked for the script and received ten full episodes. Excitedly, I sat down to read,' he recalls. He adds, 'There were lines like 'Prem chacha akhada ki competition ke liye jaa rahe hain' and 'Prem chacha full style mein entry maar rahe hain'. I thought, 'Wah! Yeh toh hero-level entry hai!' And since the show's name is Divya Prem, I assumed Prem chacha hi toh Prem hai! I called the EP and asked, 'Sir, just confirming... I'm playing Prem, right?' He replied, 'Arre sir, aap Prem ke chacha ho... not Prem.' I couldn't stop laughing. All my heroic dreams vanished instantly.' But the final twist came on the day of the shoot. 'I received the final script and saw that my character's name wasn't even Prem chacha — it was just Gajendra! That's when I realised I had to build this character from scratch. No matter the name, the responsibility to bring him alive rests with the actor, and I took that challenge seriously,' he concludes.

Megha Ray on upcoming sequence with Suraj Pratap Singh in Divya Prem: For the first time, I'm dancing with a co-actor who matches my energy
Megha Ray, who plays the titular role of Divya, opened up about her on-screen chemistry and dancing experience with co-star Suraj Pratap Singh in Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani. 'Honestly, I've never had this much fun shooting a dance sequence,' Megha shared. 'For the first time, I'm dancing with a co-actor who matches my energy step for step. Suraj is such a fantastic dancer. We share the same rhythm, the same unspoken understanding. If he moves a certain way, I instinctively know what to do next.' Megha also spoke about how this rhythm allowed them to experiment and elevate the choreography. 'That comfort lets us play with the steps, add lifts, improvise, and create something that feels effortless and in sync,' she said. While the duo was guided by professional choreographers, Megha emphasized the importance of adding their own flair. 'We have amazing choreographers, but as actors, it's our job to bring the soul. We know our characters best. Whether it's a spontaneous twirl, an expressive gaze, or an unscripted moment with Suraj, it adds depth and chemistry,' she explained. Describing dance as a form of 'storytelling without words,' Megha said this performance beautifully captures the emotional tension between Divya and Prem. Divya Prem follows the mystical love story of Divya, a spirited girl from Ujjain, whose life takes a mysterious turn when she meets Prem. As their love deepens, secrets from the past threaten to resurface — setting the stage for a narrative filled with romance, suspense, and soulful performances.
