Mukul Harish, who is seen as Varun in Rajan Shahi and Deepa Shahi's Anupamaa, is happy that he is a part of a show that is not only entertaining the viewers but also inspiring them.  He said, "Anupamaa is not just a show people watch; it’s a show people feel. When viewers say a scene or dialogue gave them strength or made them think, that’s the best reward for an actor." 

Though the dialogues from the show often go viral, the actor doesn't give it much thought. He said, "I try not to think about trends at all. If I start thinking 'yeh viral hoga' (this will go viral), the emotion is gone. I just focus on the scene and trust the writing. If it’s honest, it connects automatically." 

But Mukul admits that it's a wonderful feeling when a dialogue goes viral. He added, "It doesn’t change my process. The next scene still needs the same honesty."  And he mentioned that a dialogue going viral is quite touching. "When people use our dialogues in real situations, it means the show has become part of their lives—and that’s bigger than anything."  He believes that the relatability factor keeps the audiences emotionally invested episode after episode. "These characters feel like people we know—family, neighbors, maybe even ourselves. Strong emotions, real situations, and good writing—that’s the magic," Mukul ended.
