RAHUL DEV – Film/TV Actor
Rahul Dev Samra – (27th September 1968) is the son of the former police commissioner of Delhi.He was born in Saket
in 1968, New Delhi in a Khatri Punjabi family.
Dev did his schooling from St. Columba's School, Delhi. He used to be
a fast bowler in school, when a former cricket player Gursharan Singh who used
to coach occasionally at St. Columba's saw him bowling he was so impressed that
he asked him to join his academy. However Rahul was more interested in studies
at that time.
Rahul Dev's brother Mukul Dev
is also an actor in films and television.
He was meant to make his acting debut as the main
villain in Mukul S. Anand's 1997 film Dus
but the director's death while the film was still in production caused the film
to remain incomplete and unreleased. He then made his debut in the 2000 film Champion where he played a
villainous role and for which he was nominated for the 2001 Filmfare Best Villain Award. He has since
played villains
and supporting roles in all of his films, but is almost always seen playing the
villain. He acted villain in the Punjabi movies Dharti in 2011.
In December 2013, Dev made his television debut,
playing the role of demon Arunasur in mythological TV series Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev.
Rahul's wife Rina died on 16 May 2009 after a
battle with cancer. The couple had been married for 11 years and have an
eleven-year-old son Siddharth.
