Good character. Terrible actor.

Zayed Khan doesn't do justice to such a complex character. It's not the poker face. In fact I find him better when he's quiet and expressionless. There's just something off about his dialogue delivery and expressions. The guy is just not a good actor. Period.

The world believes that
So he doesnt have to worry about it
Nice actually ,that ppl dont expect good acting from him.
He can only improve from here

Compared to movies here he will have more to practise.

TBH, I haven't given his acting much thought. His character seems to demand of him to exhibit a certain amount of restraint and Zayed does it quite convincingly.
His acting does not stick out like sore thumb.
Probably there are people who can portray this character more convincingly, but I do feel Zayed's acting does justice to the role.
Because honestly, his role doesn't seem to require much acting skills, IMO.

Sorta agree with you, but I really believe Nakuul Mehta would portray the character way better!!

I think Zayed is apt for the role !
Nakul Mehta , Gurmeet etc. I am sure they are doing great in other shows but I am glad that Zayed is portraying Ranvir...unlike other daily soap actors he brings a certain charm and freshness to this character...his performance is more restrained and not typical...any actor could have performed this character in a very typical fashion making Ranvir like any typical character...i am intrigued by Ranvir coz he is such a well written character amd also because Zayed is performing it in such a way which makes the characrer more interesting and enigmatic.

Zayed is growing on me with each passing episode.

I am sure he will improve with each passing episode.

So, for me at least he is apt for this role !

I am still conflicted about his portrayal. I think he is doing the restrained thing fairly well. We can see there is something more going on inside him. He is cold and calculating. That is also clear. How easily he accused Kabir of killing Meenu. Kabir was very hurt and reacted as expected.
The two characters are chalk and cheese. One wears his heart on his sleeve and the other...we dont even know if he has a heart?


So far Zayed has not impressed me a lot, but neither has he disappointed me. Vatsal I feel is portraying Kabir just as he should be. Loud, obnoxious, OTT but still semi-likable. He also has his own level of intrigue. We are left wondering if he is as obvious as he makes himself appear? Ranvir on the other hand seems to show less, but there is more going on which we have to wait to see.

One thing is clear he is very calculating. He doesnt say he wants to bring Anchal down, but that is what he wants to do. Kabir says it, and he will do it too. At least he will try!


But Zayed? Jury is still out for me. I wont draw a conclusion right now.

It's not the restraint I'm concerned about. Like I said, he's actually good in those scenes. It's his dialogue delivery that puts me off.
In the beginning of the show Beyhadh Maya was shown to be a pretty restrained character, the strict boss with a poker face most of the time and Jennifer was perfect in portraying that. Her acting didn't look forced. Zayed's does. He needs to improve on that count. Otherwise he's good. I don't think any other actor should portray Ranveer Raichand. Zayed is okay, if he improves his dialogue delivery, he'll be perfect.
