EastEnders fans met a brand new character in the form of Ravi Gulati this July.

But Ravi only agrees to protect him if Phil gets him some information on Kheerat Panesar (Jaz Deol).

Who is Ravi Gulati in EastEnders?
We don’t know much about Ravi at the moment, but we do know he is joining the show as a regular in the summer.
He is known to the Panesar family as the son of family friend Ranveer, who recently arrived and offered to find Kheerat a wife.
Ravi seemingly has a dark side and with his time in prison soon coming to an end, he is set to reunite with his father.
But we can’t imagine the Panesars will be pleased to see him…
