Parul Gulati’s Transformation in Donali: A Gritty New Avatar

Parul Gulati's character has an unpolished, earthy look and a fierce presence, reflecting strength and resilience. In the first glimpse, she is seen holding a desi katta with confidence, a skill that demands training and practice. Her appearance and body language align with the character’s authenticity, capturing the essence of Chambal’s world.

Sharing her thoughts on this transformative role, Parul said “Playing a dacoit in Donali has been one of the most thrilling experiences of my career. This character is raw, gritty, and unapologetic—very different from anything I’ve done before. The look itself speaks volumes; it’s stripped down, real, and full of intensity. Holding a desi Katta, mastering its handling, and understanding the psyche of someone who survives in the rugged terrains of Chambal was a journey in itself. It wasn’t just about looking the part but truly becoming it. The entire process—from training with weapons to adapting to the dialect and body language—has been both challenging and exhilarating. I can’t wait for the audience to see this side of me.”

Donali also features Barun Sobti in a key role, offering a gripping story that explores crime, power, and survival.
