Rajat Dahiya on playing the antagonist in Ufff… Yeh Love Hai Mushkil; says ‘My character's motivations come from a place of hurt and personal history'
The romantic drama Ufff… Yeh Love Hai Mushkil continues to captivate viewers with unexpected plot twists and emotionally layered characters. Just as the relationship between Yug (Shabir Ahluwalia) and Kairi (Ashi Singh) begins to deepen, the show is gearing up for a major shake-up with the entry of Rajat Dahiya as Vikram (Vicky) Malhotra — a suave yet sinister lawyer with a long-standing grudge against Yug.
Vikram's arrival brings more than just legal drama. He is Yug's former rival, and their shared history is filled with betrayal and unresolved animosity. With Vikram back, buried tensions resurface, and his calculated moves pose a serious threat to Yug's personal and professional life—especially his growing bond with Kairi.
Speaking about the role, Rajat Dahiya shared, 'What really drew me to Vikram was how complex and unpredictable he is.
He's not just a villain—he's someone who knows exactly how to find people's weak spots and use them. He can charm you, make you question yourself, and twist situations to his advantage, all while staying two steps ahead.'
He added, 'But what makes him interesting is that he's not doing this just to be evil—his actions come from a place of deep hurt, pride, and personal history. I'm looking forward to exploring this psychological tug-of-war between him and Yug, especially because it plays out in the middle of such an unusual love story.'

With Vikram's manipulative charisma and emotional scars, his entry promises to add both tension and depth to the narrative. His character challenges not only Yug's past but also threatens to upend his present—and viewers can expect a gripping battle of wits, emotion, and secrets in the episodes to come.

When asked what advice he has given her, he said, "Sometimes kids say to me, 'I want to be an actor, what's your advice?' And I say, 'Don't be!' I know what's coming for them. I was chucked on that road and the only advice that I can give is, 'Don't allow anyone to make you something you are not'. They'll want you to be a poster boy and it's tempting, a lot of money. And if that's the direction you want? Go for it. But don't let anybody choose for you". The actor has never felt comfortable with fame and rarely even goes out with his friends because he doesn't want to bring unwanted attention their way. He said: "Well, to this day I just rarely go out. If friends invite me out for Mexican food, I say, 'Dude, that's sweet of you but I will ruin your night'. My presence will bring attention and, Jesus, I have had almost 40 years of fame but I'm still not used to it. And I'm glad I'm not".
