Sunita Rajwar: ‘TVF Gave Me a New Life’
Yaar, it’s rare to see big bosses stay grounded, but TVF’s Arunabh Kumar seems to have cracked the code. Sunita Rajwar, who plays the beloved Amma in Gullak, recently got emotional while talking about the founder. She credited TVF and Kumar directly for turning her career around when she had almost lost hope. According to the actress, her entire growth as an actor and the recognition she gets today are all because of Gullak and Panchayat. She said she will always owe her success to those shows. Rajwar added that Kumar remains as simple and accessible as he was when they first started shooting. Success and time haven’t changed him one bit, she insisted, calling TVF a family that always supported her.
Jameel Khan: ‘Arunabh Knows How to Build a Team’
Jameel Khan, who plays the father in Gullak, had similar things to say about the TVF boss. He recalled a conversation after a screening of the show’s second or third season. Khan told Kumar that they had created a great team and a property that was a gold mine, and requested him not to change it. Kumar assured him that everything would stay good. Over time, directors and writers changed, but the person at the helm remained the same, Khan noted. There’s something special about Kumar, he said — the man knows how to build a team and nurture it even when members change. Khan praised Kumar’s understanding of team dynamics.
Gullak Season 5: A Family Affair
The praise comes as Gullak Season 5 continues to run and win over audiences with its warm, slice-of-life storytelling. Both actors emphasized that the show’s success is rooted in the family-like atmosphere that Kumar has fostered. Rajwar said she can never think of anything against TVF because, apart from success, they gave her a new life at a time when she was hopeless. Khan echoed that sentiment, calling the team a gold mine that Kumar has wisely kept intact. For fans of the show, it’s heartening to know that the love and humility behind the camera are as real as the stories on screen.
