Prajakta Koli is preparing to say goodbye to one of the most important roles in his acting career. The actress, creator and author will return as Dimple Ahuja in the final season of Netflix’s ‘Mismatched’, but the farewell is already heartbreaking. The youth romance series gave Prajakta her first lead role on a streaming show and made Dimple a household name among young viewers. As the final season draws closer to filming, the thought of leaving the set has already begun to sink in.
Prajakta Koli last season ‘Wrong’
Speaking to Hindustan Times, Prajakta said that he feels excited and nervous about the end of the show. “I’m equal parts excited and scared about how I’m going to face my last day on that set,” he said. “I’ve had Dimple for almost seven years now. I’m dreading each passing day because it brings me closer to the last day. I’m going to cry my eyes out and hug everyone.”
The final season of ‘Mismatched’ was announced at the Next on Netflix event in Mumbai in February 2026. The new chapter will bring Dimple and Rishi into each other’s lives after an emotional goodbye. The story will follow their unresolved feelings and ask if they are really incompatible or if they were separated only by time.Prajakta said the team didn’t expect the show to connect so strongly with young audiences. “That was an eye-opener for all of us,” he said. “They were all quite new. When we were shooting Mismatched, we were talking about the vibe of Dill Mill Gayye or Miley Jab Hum Tum. It had been so long that those kinds of shows were on TV. Mismatched opened up opportunities for me to explore the genre.”
Prajakta Koli’s Marathi film and upcoming projects
Prajakta recently made her Marathi cinema debut with ‘Krantijyoti Vidyalay Marathi Madhyam’. He said that the film felt personal to him as Marathi is his mother tongue. “The Marathi film was created through producers Kshiti Jog and Hemant Dhome,” he said. “Kshiti played my mother in Mismatched. I love Marathi cinema, it’s my mother tongue, and I did Marathi theater for a long time. Moving into this was a whole new universe for me, but Kshiti told the story, and I was totally serious.“He added, “I couldn’t have had a better first Marathi film.”The actor also continues to explore the theater. “I love being fed live energy,” Prajakta said. “The theater is a great place for that, and that’s why I asked Akarsh Khurana to let me know if he was doing a play.”His upcoming works include ‘Operation Safed Sagar’, ‘Single Papa’ season 2 and the final season of ‘Mismatched’. “It’s so exciting,” she said. “I’m writing until June, then I start shooting Mismatched. I also have Operation Safed Sagar, where I have a small but beautiful character, and another project called Single Papa.”‘Matched’ stars Rohit Saraf, Prajakta Koli, Vidya Malvade, Rannvijay Singha, Ahsaas Channa, Taaruk Raina, Muskkaan Jaferi and Abhinav Sharma.
