With the latest trend of most popular characters having a dhamakedaar comeback in their respective shows, Actor Kiran Karmarkar has now joined the list.. He is now back in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki..

Atlast, the ‘Perfect Man’ in Parvati’s life is back!!! Kiran Karmarkar has surely made a comeback to his favorite serial Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, but is he back as Om? Wasn’t Om dead and gone? Did the audience not see Om’s dead body, 2 years back? Well, anything can happen in the world of soaps, isn’t it?
