Vipul Roy Biography

Vipul Roy is an Indian actor known for his television work, including the popular SAB TV comedy F.I.R., and for appearances in web series and Punjabi film.

Early life and background

Vipul Roy was born on 30 August 1985 in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. He attended Sherwood College in Nainital and later completed a degree in hotel management from The Monarch International College of Hotel Management in Tamil Nadu. Before committing full-time to acting, Roy worked as a chef, balancing night shifts in restaurants with auditions and early acting work during the day.

Career

Roy first came to public attention as a contestant on the talent show India’s Best Cinestars Ki Khoj in 2004 while he was in his first year of college. That early exposure helped launch a television career that would include a mix of acting and hosting. He is widely recognised for playing the character Bhola Pandit on SAB TV’s comedy F.I.R., a role that brought him greater visibility among television audiences.

Across his television career, Roy has been part of several fiction series, including Tujko Hai Salaam Zindgi, Jeanie Aur Juju, Sahib Biwi Aur Boss, Dr. Madhumati On Duty and Partners Trouble Ho Gayi Double. He has also hosted reality formats such as Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Mega Challenge and Wheel Ghar Ghar Mein.

Roy expanded into film and digital work as well. He made his Punjabi film debut with What the Jatt in 2015. On the streaming front, he appeared in the comedy web series Booo Sabki Phategi (2019) on ALTBalaji and in the ZEE5 series Black Widows (2021).

In 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdown, Roy created, produced and hosted a YouTube program called Viral with Vipul in which he invited television personalities to play games; prize money won on the show was directed to people in need. He has also spoken publicly about the challenges actors face in the industry and about the financial and emotional pressures revealed during the pandemic.

Public profile

Roy’s physical presence is notable: he stands around 185 cm (about 6'1") and has maintained a 70 kg physique with reported body measurements often shared in profiles. He has black hair and black eyes. In the course of his public life he has received recognition at award events, including wins for best actor and best screen personality at Zee Awards.

Fans and media have sometimes compared Roy’s looks to a younger version of veteran actor Dharmendra, a comparison Roy has acknowledged as flattering. He is active on social media, where he shares photos from his personal life, workouts, and his interest in cooking. Roy has said that cooking remains a passion and a creative outlet; he has recounted working as a chef early in his career and continuing to experiment with recipes and drinks when time permits.

Roy is a dog lover and frequently features his pets on social platforms. He also has a tattoo of a Feng Shui symbol on his right hand, a spontaneous decision he has described from a vacation experience.

Personal life

Roy’s parents are Vikram Roy and Anjali Roy and he has a sister, model Akanksha Roy. He was in a long-term relationship with actress Yuvika Chaudhary for several years before they separated. In October 2018 he became engaged to Melis Atici; the couple married in February 2022. On 8 September 2022, Roy and his wife welcomed a baby girl.

Roy is reported to enjoy travelling, swimming and cooking. He has been photographed with alcoholic drinks on social media and has spoken about working out regularly; he also owns a Renault Triber car and a Hayabusa motorcycle.

Latest updates

In recent years Roy has continued working across platforms, with roles in web series and continued television appearances.
