Hey guys, this is an old article, but i came across it and thought of sharing it with you...
Ek baar phir...
Once again, Amit Tandon has lost his pie to Iqbal Khan. In Kaisa Ye Pyar Hai, Tandon was first supposed to do Angad's role, which eventually went to Iqbal. It has now happened in Karam Apna Apna. Says Amit, "Whatever decisions are taken by Ekta Kapoor are never wrong.
She knows television the best. Maybe she wants to establish my Manthan character in Kyunki... more, that's why I am not doing Karam Apna Apna." Amit made his first splash on television with Indian Idol.
Do you think Amit Tandon would have suited Angad's role in Kyph and Shiv's role in KAA...
please discuss ur views here...please dont say that Iqbal is the best and so no Amit wouldnt have suited it, but seriously try imagining him doing Angad's and Shiv's role do you think he would have suited it?? Please be honest,theres no harm in saying he would have even if u r a Iqbal Khan fan...the question isnt whether Amit would have been better as Angad than Iqbal Khan, the question is whether if Amit did do the role would he have suited it??
I, myself am a big fan of Iqbal Khan, but when i think of it, i sometimes feel he may have suited the role of Shiv, this is because i've seen his acting as Manthan where he plays a bad guy and not to forget his role as a bad/mad guy Pritvi in kyph itself... so i think if he did do Shiv or Angad's role to SOME EXTENT he would have possibly suited it...
