Gaurav Khanna has a 'casual' THROWBACK to his character in 'Prem Ya Paheli? - Chandrakanta'

And do you miss him as Virendra Singh too?

Last year, this time around, the talk of the town was how television will be witnessing the clash of two versions of Chandrakanta on Life OK (now Star Bharat) and Colors.

The Life OK version came on-air in March 2017 starring Gaurav Khanna and Kritika Kamra in lead role and ran for over 5 months, while Colors' version starring Vishal Aaditya Singh and Madhurima Tuli went on-air in June 2017 and continues to run currently too.

The battle may be forgotten now, but for Gaurav, the role of Virendra was certainly special and challenging too.

No one can deny the fact that both Gaurav and Kritika did full justice to their characters even though the show wasn't a roaring success.

Reminiscing the same, Gaurav had a throwback moment to playing Virendra and he mentioned how it was one of the most unusual characters he had to play so far in his career-

Kritika Kamra was the best Chandrakanta among all the actresses playing Chandrakanta. She was very modern for a 11th century woman. She always fought back and stood for self-respect. Though she was butchered a few times but still she is one of the best and strongest female leads in Indian Television. She fought back against her enemy Shiv Dutt instead of becoming his slave. As someone said in below comment that Indian people does not like good stuff so they deserve rubbish they get. ChaVi is one of the best romantic pair I have seen in Indian Television. Like others, I too wish for Season 2 to complete the incomplete story in a proper way.

Completely Agree with both ov you Neen and Juhi . Gaurav is super talented , heard work, Honest towards his work. No one can beat Gaurav in any kind of roles which he played. And Prince Virander singh is one of the best role played by Gaurav. Hope We see Gaurav on Screen soon. Love you Gaurav Khanna. :-)))

Completely agree with you juhi. Some shows n actors get special mentions on IF and others are forgotten. Thank God!!! IF remembered to post this article for completing one year of PYPCK. And yes Gaurav is best as Prince Virendra singh. He completely nailed it with his performance. Whether it was action sequence or romantic scene, he owned it.
Virendra singh is surely the best ML on television shows world; non abusive, supportive lover without any faltu tashan. Still in awe of PYPCK n our darling prince Virendra singh aka GK. Hope to see him on screen soon.

IF remembered some actors or show but they forgot to mention that 1 year has passed of this show. Gaurav Khanna was the best Virendra Singh among all the actors playing Virendra Singh. His character's transformation from a khunkhaar killer to a lover was awesome. And yes he changed into a better person without any efforts of Chandrakanta. His character respected woman and loved Chandrakanta even when he was a killer which is hardly seen in any male lead nowadays. Virendra Singh was an ideal friend, lover, son and also future son-in-law. No one have ever imagined Gaurav Khanna doing such a different role but he aced it with his performance.

Prem Ya Paheli Chandrakanta; undoubtedly one of the best shows on television. Show has everything that is required for a good show, the story, the cast n characterization. This show is best adaptation of novel till date. It is way better than Colors version. Show may haven't fetched the sky soaring Trps but content and popularity wise, it is surely the winner; as fans still love the show very much. They continuously want the season 2. And about Gaurav, he was/is magnificent as Virendra singh. Bottom line is that fans miss the show like anything.
