Parul Gulati on making her red carpet debut 


Parul recalls that growing up, she prayed hard to get to Cannes after watching Anurag Kashyap take Gangs of Wasseypur at the film festival. She also idolised “Indian Barbie” Aishwarya Rai, a Cannes constant. 


Parul wore a custom outfit created by Mohit Rai. Her outfit for her debut at Cannes has been made of hair, in line with her hair extension brand, Nish Hair. She explains, “I will call this the greatest collaboration ever. It's an outfit that just speaks very loudly that it's me. We made something from scratch. It’s a vision I had that Mohit brought to life.”

Parul Gulati on her skincare rituals, travel essentials, and more

Parul confesses that she’s the last person to be talking about skincare. “I only dip my face in ice and use one moisturizer, which I've been using for the last 12 years. That’s it. My makeup kit is tiny. I don't pack extra stuff. Must-haves would be essentials like the right heels, innerwear, shapewear, the right shade of makeup, and probably currency of the place I’m travelling to.”

Parul Gulati will next be seen in Donali alongside Divyendu and Barun Sobti. The show is directed by E Niwas. It also stars Chunky Pandey, Yashpal Sharma and others. Set in the rugged and tumultuous landscape of Chambal during the 1960s, the upcoming series shot across Madhya Pradesh.

Parul has worked in P.O.W. - Bandi Yuddh Ke, Selection Day, and Girls Hostel. She is also an entrepreneur and model who has appeared in several TV shows and Punjabi films. She is the CEO and founder of her hair extensions brand ‘Nish Hair’.

She debuted in TV show, Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kum, in which she played the role of Bittan, the younger sister of Leher played by Bollywood actress Yami Gautam.
