As parts of Bollywood try to paint the picture of an alpha hero, Rohit Saraf has carved a niche for himself, filling the space of the Gen Z romcom star. At just 27, Saraf's filmography is the ultimate watchlist, from his multi-season show on Netflix, 'Mismatched', to his recent silver screen takeover with 'Ishq Vishq Rebound'.

Since childhood, the actor has had a soft corner for dancing. His father envisioned him as an on-screen charmer and would always ask Saraf to pursue a career in the industry. Saraf was only 12 when his father passed away, and to bring his dream to life, he gave acting a chance and moved to Mumbai. "I felt a deep desire to fulfil his dreams. When I first started acting, I realised how much I loved it. Once I started performing on camera, I knew there was no turning back."
