'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’: Parmeet Sethi calls Shah Rukh Khan the 'real villain'; says Raj took away Kuljit’s fiancée

Parmeet Sethi, who played Kuljit in the iconic film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ), has offered an unconventional take on the story, suggesting that Shah Rukh Khan’s character Raj is actually the “real villain” because, from Kuljit’s perspective, Raj came along and stole Kuljit’s fiancée (played by Kajol). He argued that Kuljit didn’t do anything wrong, and yet his intended bride ends up with Raj. Sethi’s comments align with similar sentiments expressed by Manoj Bajpayee (reflecting on his role in Veer Zaara) who said that from his character’s viewpoint, Shah Rukh’s character was the antagonist.
