Rajat Bedi filmography
Rajat Bedi’s career began in the early 1990s with films like ‘Karan Arjun’ (1995) and ‘2001: Dobara’ (1998). However, television gave him his first steady space with the series ‘Humrahi’ in the mid-90s.
His true breakthrough came in 2003 with Rakesh Roshan’s ‘Koi… Mil Gaya’, where he played the antagonist against Hrithik Roshan’s Rohit.
Over the years, he went on to feature in more than 40 films, including ‘Rakht’ (2004), ‘Khamoshh… Khauff Ki Raat’ (2005), ‘Partner’ (2007) and ‘Rocky – The Rebel’ (2006). His career also saw him on television in shows like ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’ and ‘Aahat’.
While he often played negative characters, Bedi’s filmography is not restricted to them alone. He has been part of action-packed thrillers, comedy entertainers, and emotional dramas.
Now, fans are curious to see how his character Jaraj Saxena fits into the world Aryan has created.
