Its weird and kind of silly that Shashank fans compare him with Vikram, Shashank having experience in a women centric show does not make him any kind of TV god that Vikram has to be called names and demeaned in every post you make just to prove that SV is better. If SV would really be better, then his work would speak in the show.
Shashank joined the show late, fully aware of the fact that Vikram was the male lead, Its not Vikram's fault if his character was sidelines as Vikram impressed the makers with his work and if he wanted things to change then sorry I am happy that he has been shown the door.
One more thing, I have told it earlier, If anybody watches the show from day 1, then its practically impossible to think that Atharva can be replaced in the show with another male lead irrespective of how great and giving his character is, the build up and journey of Atharva in phase 1 is heart wrenching.
