Veers moral values do not allow him to understand why she did what she did THAT is why he is experiancing so many turbulent emotions. When Veer is forced to partaking in the actions that Shera does this instead of making him understand her majborre will instead make him hate himself because he has just committed the crime that he hates.
This self loathing could even lead to Veer being more angry with Shera because he may blame her for what he was forced to do. This is a completely human reaction and understandable. When one person is feeling pressured and is forced to do something that is hateful to their own values and thinking then that person will understandably wish to explain their actions to themselves. Veer cannot explain his actions satisfactorily enough therefore he will revert to anger against Shera.
Of course Veer loves Shera and this anger against her will only accomplish more pain for himself and more frustration and desperation. He doesnt know how to stop loving her he cant justify her actions he cant justify his OWN actions which are now similar to hers and all this confusion and depression and denial is only enabling Veer to sink deeper into an emotional turmoil.
Only a strong minded individual could handle so much emotion and feeling and still be able to focus on the goal of Freedom for the Shramik which in itself is a High and Difficult challenge to accomplish.
All this further proves the complexity of Veers character and so further enforces the fact that Rajat is better suited to acting Veers character than Prithvis.

"Rajat Tokas, suits which role more? Prithvi Raj Chauhan or Veer?"

To answer such a profound question we must first of all compare the dramas and both the characters with each other.

PrithviRaj Chauhan is a character which actually has a basis in historical fact. He was a king of the Hindu Rajput Chauhan (Chauhamana) dynasty, who ruled a kingdom in northern India during the latter half of the 12th century.

Prithvi Raj Chauhan was the second last Hindu king to sit upon the throne of Delhi. He succeeded to the throne in 1179 CE at the age of 11, and ruled from the twin capitals of Ajmer and Delhi. He controlled much of Rajasthan and Haryana. His elopement with Sanyogita, the daughter of Jai Chandra, the King of Kannauj, is a popular romantic tale in India, and is one of the subjects of the Prithviraj Raso, an epic poem composed by Prithviraj's court poet and friend, Chand Bardai.

The drama Prithvi Rah Chauhan focuses on the many victories of Prithvi Raj Chauhan with a great emphasis on the relationship he shared with Sanyogita.

Throughout the drama there is also a great importance given to the relationship he shared with his four friends: Pundir, Chand Bardai, Arjun and Sanjam. In this way the main themes of this drama are Friendship, Love and Honour.

DharamVeer is the tale of two brothers which is set in the Kingdom of Aryanagar. This people of this kingdom are split into two sects: the Shramik and the Aryavarths. The Aryavarths are seen as the more important and also have created the Laws and Regulations with which they rule Aryanagar. The Shramik are the slaves of the Aryavarths and work for them. They gain no recognition from the Aryavarths of their hard work and there are many of them who resent this enforced division seeing it as unjust and prejudiced.

Rajat Tokas plays the role of Veer who is one of the main characters in this drama. He was born to the Shramik Soma who was the leader in the resistance against the Aryavarths but by a trick of Fate was raised by Nivriti, an Aryavarth and the widowed sister of the King of Aryanagar.

Nivriti instilled the values of Duty, Honour and Love in Veer as she raised him, one of these duties being to Honour and Protect Dharam, the son of the King of Aryanagar. Both are raised together who share a deep bond of True Love and Friendship between them. This bond is so strong that Dharam and Veer are incomplete without each other and cannot see themselves without each other in their lives.

Similarily the themes of Friendship, Love and Honour are prominent throughout the drama and share a resounding resemblance to the drama of Prithvi Raj Chauhan.

So here we can see that the two dramas, DharamVeer and Prithvi Raj Chauhan, are similar in both the themes that are promoted and in the lessons that are brought across to the audience.

Prithvi Raj Chauhan is the future King of Ajmeer and so as he was raised he was instilled with a great sense of Duty and Responsibility. It is a certainty that he will one day be crowned King after his father and so is very mature for his age and in his thinking. He does have his share of fun and amusements especially when he is in company with his friends but knows the limit of such trivial amusements. His character is therefore very serious in nature, mature and responsible. His Duty lies with his Kingdom and People and with his family and friends.

'Mein tumhey kuch nahin hoonay doon gah.'

This quote was spoken in deference to his father, Maharaj Someshwar, when his father was ambushed and an assassination attempt against his life was taken. Prithvi Raj Chauhan holds his father in great esteem and in the days following his father's death he was overcome with a great sense of guilt and anguish as he felt he had betrayed his father by not being able to save him from death.

'Ek betah apnay pitaji key rakshah nahin kar paya toh voh Ajmeer kay logoh key rakshah kaisey kar paey gah? Mein pitaji key jagah nahin ley saktah.'

this sense of failed Duty leaves Prithvi Raj Chauhan in great emotional turmoil and we see from this incident how strongly he views Responsibility and Duty. So strongly that he sees himself as having failed even when circumstances were out of his control and nothing he could have done would have changed it anyway.

He has a strong sense of fulfilling Duty to his utmost best and many times comes across as a perfectionist and strict disciplinarian.

'Prithvi Raj Chauhan nay khabhie harna nahin seekah.'

This facet of his character is brought across extremely well and stressed with great importance from this one quote. This quote has become quite famous in the drama as Prithvi Raj Chauhan's catchphrase and is seen as showing the epitome of Prithvi Raj Chauhan's character. It shows how zealous he is in wanting to achieve success and stresses the importance he puts on Victory and fulfilling his each and every undertaking.

Veer in comparison is the cousin of the future King of Aryanagar, Dharam. Unlike Prithvi Raj Chauhan, Veer is considerably less serious. He is seen as mischievous and fun-loving. This facet of his character is seen especially prominently in the beginning of the drama.

'Iss baat ka koi inkaar nahin kar saktah kay tum ek better bhai ho. Paar ek better khiladi toh Veer he hain.'

This catchphrase shows the essence of Veer's character. He is extremely competitive and like Prithvi Raj Chauhan has a sense of wanting to be the Best. He refuses to fail in anything whether it be a game or in upholding his Duty. But this passion for being successful and victorious is, at the beginning of the drama, more for his own notion of achievement and not for any other person. Throughout the drama we see a gradual change in Veer's character in the fact that although he still wishes to be victorious in his endeavours, these endeavours are for other people and not his own satisfaction.

His sense of Duty and Responsibility only stretches to encompass Dharam and Veer's family. Here is the main difference that is seen between Veer and Prithvi Raj Chauhan.

Veer was raised with the same sense of Duty and Responsibility as Prithvi Raj Chauhan but whereas Prithvi Raj Chauhan focuses this Duty and Responsibility on his Kingdom and People, Veer focuses his Duty and Responsibility on his Best Friend and Brother Dharam. Occasionally this Duty and Responsibility is also concentrated onto protecting the Aryavarths and Aryanagar however if it came down to choosing between the two Veer would choose upholding his Duty to Dharam.

Veer 'Mein iss key baat kyun maano?'

Dharam 'Kyunki yehi Aryanagar ka kanoon hain or iss ka paalan karana hamara farz!'

Veer 'Mein essay kanoon ko nahin mantah!'

This discussion took place between Dharam and Veer when Veer refused to compete with Dharam for the Throne due to the fact that he saw Dharam as being the rightful heir and as a result the future King of Aryanagar.

This is also especially seen when Dharam is falsely accused and sentenced to hang by the Laws of Aryanagar. Instead of accepting this ruling Veer takes it upon himself to save Dharam and in doing so breaks the Law of Aryanagar.

Veer's defining characteristic is his love for Dharam.

'Dharam kay binah Veer ka koi matlaab he nahin.'

It is this love which leads him to stand against age old tradition and Laws and dare to face the Aryavarths and challenge them on their views and injustice.

Throughout the drama we see Veer go to great lengths to save his brother from a numerous amount of disastrous situations. In some cases even putting his own life on the line, if that is what it will take to ensure Dharam's wellbeing.

This channelling of Duty and Responsibility shows a great difference in character between Prithvi Raj Chauhan and Veer. Where Prithvi Raj Chauhan is mature, serious and strict; Veer is less serious, more easy-going and more fun-loving. This is due to the fact that Veer has no great responsibility as such; at least not as great as Prithvi Raj Chauhan's responsibility. Prithvi Raj Chauhan has an entire Kingdom and its many people to be responsible for whereas Veer has only Responsibility to Dharam. He also has a sense of Responsibility towards Aryanagar but if this Responsibilty conflicts with his Duty to Dharam he will fulfil his Duty to Dharam instead.

However, unlike Prithvi Raj Chauhan we can say that the greater emotional and mental development is seen in Veer's character because after 'Dharam being falsely sentenced' incident there is a definite turning point in Veer's character. There is a gradual change in his character of increasing maturity and Veer develops into a more thoughtful person where he contemplates on the injustice of the Laws of Aryanagar not just against his brother but against the slaves of the Aryavarths, the Shramiks.

This change is further advanced when Veer realises the truth of his birth and that he is in fact the Messiah of the Shramiks.

It is here where Veer is forced to choose between Freedom for all and Injustice and those who stand for it.

As Dharam is crowned King of Aryanagar he must uphold the Laws of Aryanagar and so Veer now sees himself in a position where he must choose to either stand with his Brother or what he sees as doing the right thing.

He chooses to stand against the Injustice that is shown to the Shramiks and here we see the strength of Veer's character because he loves his brother extremely deeply but when Injustice is being done Veer cannot sit back and watch it go on. He refuses to believe that there are people who do not deserve freedom and who do not wish for freedom.

"Dharam iss duniya mein aisa kaun sah aadmi hain jis ko azadi nahin chayihe?"

Prithvi Raj Chauhan's character has always been mature and responsible and so can be said to be strictly two dimensional as he does not undergo a great deal of change. he is continuously serious, has always been mature and has always known where his responsibility lies.

Veer's character however undergoes a greater emotional upheaval as his responsibilities and duties change to encompass not just his brother but also against the injustices committed against the common man and through this change Veer emerges as mentally stronger, with more conscientiousness and a great deal more maturity in his thinking and actions.

Point 1: Veer hates Shera because she is a Dakoo. Well of course Veer hates Shera when he finds out shes a Dakoo. Veer hates people who rob the innocent for their own means and there is nothing wrong with his opinion. In fact he is right and this proves his high moral values and what a great character he is.

Point 2: When he met Ananya he was rude to her. This was Veer's childishness. Veer has never interacted with girls before and Prithvi acted in a simlar manner to Sanyogita when they first met in the Yatra. This characteristic in both characters is the same. It is a parallel in their behaviours and the Rajats ability to act so arrogant and rude towards Ananya is a mark of his wonderful acting skills. Rajat can act both positively and negatively therefore this acting is a good point not a bad one.

Point 3: He left Shera when he realised she was a Dakoo. Veer left her because he hated her actions and the person he thinks she is. He has a high standard of values and a code of honour which does not allow him to accept what Shera is because he sees it as Wrong and there is nothing wrong with his thinking. He is right and thats why he left her. But his actions may seem very harsh because he was not immune to Shera. Ultimately he felt betrayed by her because he cared for her a great deal and she deceived him therefore Veer's action is justified and Rajat also brought this emotion across extremely well.

Point 4: He asked her to steal Dharams money but in the Mela was being nice to her. (Extreme change) Veer in desperation had to ask her to steal the Money he hated himself in doing so (See my previous post on Veers emotional turmoil during this incident) but at the same time was grateful for Sheras help. At the mela he has forgotten that Shera is a Dakoo because he is in love with her and Shera is a good hearted person. He does not remember her wrong doings at the mela because he enjoys her company and he loves her. And for the moment he was not worrying about the challenges he is facing. Shera is helping him in the mela and he is grateful for her help and because he loves her this gratitude is enhanced even more so that he can only see her Goodness and does not remember her past actions. This is not an extreme change it is just a human reaction. And Veers character is more realistic than PRCs character because he is put through so much emotional turmoil.

Point 5: Prithvi accepted Nandini as Sanyogita. Yes but Sanyogita was a Princess and was not a Dakoo who had in the past killed people or robbed them for her own needs. Sanyogita was not PRCs enemy, her father was PRCs enemy. PRC had no problem as such with Sanyogita in fact in Prithvi Raj Chauhan the opposite is true. Sanyogita felt betrayed by PRC and was experiancing the same emotional turmoil as what Veer is facing in the face of Sheras betrayal. The situations are reversed in both dramas.

Point 6: This side of Veer is not good therefore Rajat is better as PRC. The ability of Rajat to act both negative and positive aspects makes him a better, more capable actor and also brings a realism to Veers character. Veers character is more human than PRCs because he is flawed but despite these flaws Veer emerges as a stronger character and therefore enables Rajat to develop his skills as an actor even more.
Veers character is more complex and three dimensional than PRCs. It is more realistic and we as the audience can relate to his actions. We may not like some of them but we understand why he is reacting like that. Saying that one side of Veer is not good does not answer the question of whether or not Rajat is better suited as an actor in acting Veers character. Rajat is better suited as an actor to acting Veers character because it has a wider range of diverse emotions which can be displayed to the best of Rajats acting ability.
