Manoj Bajpayee shared a deeply emotional tribute on X (formerly Twitter):

“It’s impossible to put into words what I’m feeling. Mukul was a brother in spirit, an artist whose warmth and passion were unmatched. Gone too soon, too young. Praying for strength and healing for his family and everyone grieving this loss. Miss you meri jaan…until we meet again, Om Shanti.”

Mukul Dev was best known for his roles in films such as Son of Sardaar, R… Rajkumar, and Jai Ho. His final screen appearance will be in Son of Sardaar 2.

Born in New Delhi into a Punjabi family with roots in a village near Jalandhar, Mukul came from a background steeped in culture and discipline. His father, an assistant commissioner of police, introduced him to Afghan culture and was fluent in Pashto and Persian.

Mukul’s entry into the entertainment world came early—he earned his first paycheque in Class 8 for impersonating Michael Jackson in a Doordarshan dance show. Interestingly, he was also a trained pilot from the Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Uran Akademi before transitioning fully into acting.

Mukul Dev’s presence across film and television left a mark, and he will be remembered for both his talent and warmth.
