Krushal Ahuja, known for his roles in shows like "Jhanak," is embarking on a new chapter in his career with the show "Bindi" on Colors TV. In this family drama, which premiered on September 17, 2025, Krushal takes on the role of Aviraj, a character with negative shades, marking a departure from the positive roles he has previously portrayed.

Ahuja doesn't believe that playing a negative role will typecast him. He emphasizes that if the story resonates with him and the character's negativity is justified, he is open to exploring such roles. He sees "Bindi" as a "jackpot" because he gets to play a hero with negative shades.

The actor describes Aviraj as a dark character, unlike his previous roles where the characters were flawed but good at heart. Aviraj, on the other hand, is someone who "lies, cheats, steals, and runs illegal businesses" without any guilt, driven solely by profit and power.

"Bindi" tells the story of a young girl, Bindi, who is raised in prison and later ventures into the outside world to seek justice for her wrongfully imprisoned mother. The series is a remake of the Telugu drama "Chinni". Sanchi Bhoyar plays the titular role of Bindi, and Radhika Muthukumar portrays her mother, Kajal. Aviraj is central to the conflict in the story.

Ahuja was drawn to "Bindi" because of its strong, emotional, and impactful narrative. He also saw it as a challenge to play such a dark character while still being a lead. He is eager to explore the darker shades of human behavior and hopes the audience will embrace him in this demanding role.

Krushal notes that Aviraj is not a one-dimensional villain. He is terrifying because he feels no remorse as he manipulates his wife and teams up with Dayanand, willing to go to any length for money. Veteran actor Manav Gohil plays Dayanand Chaudhury, a man who thrives on corruption and control, further intensifying the conflict.

Before "Bindi," Krushal gained recognition for his role as Aniruddh in "Jhanak". He also addressed speculations about "Jhanak" ending, stating that everything has its time to conclude and expressing hope for the production team's future endeavors. He also acknowledged the fans' desire to see him reunite with Hiba Nawab in "Jhanak" but emphasized the importance of accepting that the chapter has closed.

With "Bindi," Krushal Ahuja is ready to captivate audiences with a new side of his acting abilities, delving into the complexities of a character driven by darkness and ambition.
