Charul Malik Credits Binaiferr Kohli and Rupal Patel as Her Guiding Forces in the Industry

Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai actress Charul Malik emphasizes the immense importance of a good teacher in a child’s life. She believes that a teacher's guidance significantly impacts how a child develops and shapes their future.

"Teachers' Day is a very important day because, without a good teacher, I don't think a student can truly achieve their full potential. In the entertainment industry, I've been fortunate to have two mentors who have been more than just teachers to me; they are also my friends, philosophers, and guides," she says.

She adds, "The first is my producer, Binaiferr Kohli ma'am. She is incredibly close to me and has not only been a mentor but also a true friend, philosopher, and guide. From the very beginning, she has guided me like a friend, always standing by my side. As a philosopher, I've learned so much from her. When I first entered the entertainment industry, I knew very little about it. I used to cover it from a media perspective, but the inner workings of the industry were new to me. However, even before I stepped into it, Binaiferr ma'am had already prepared me, guiding and supporting me from day one."

Speaking about another great teacher in her life, she says, "My second mentor, teacher, guide, and philosopher is Rupal Patel, known to many as Kokila Modi from Saath Nibhaana Saathiya. She is a very close friend and senior to me, and I've learned a great deal from her. We talk almost every other day, sharing and exchanging our thoughts. She shares her experiences, and I share mine. We correct, support, and encourage each other. Rupal Ji is incredibly sorted and seasoned, and I deeply admire how she balances her professional and personal life. I've learned so much from her, not just through our conversations but also by observing her from a distance. Of course, we also talk, and I gain a lot of clarity on what to do, how to do it, and why certain things should or shouldn't be done.

Both Binaiferr ma'am and Rupal Ji are very close to me. Having a guide in the industry is invaluable because it gives you a clear picture from the start. If you're fortunate enough to have a true guide, there's nothing better than that."
