First things First, personally Shukla was never the king in my eyes. He thought he was and it showed in his arrogance.
But finally, we are seeing the Rise of the Wazir, the man who everyone called chela has come into his own and now is eyeing the throne and is a potential threat to the throne. That in itself is a great achievement for a newcomer who was an unknown, whom everyone wrote off.
The man who came out of a friendship valuing his seld-respect more. The man who took on even the channel's bias and favoritism. The man who spoke openly against the rampaging bully who thought others as inferior to him.
He has finally found a place where there is mutual respect and is among equals with friends like Rashmi and Vishal.
Meanwhile, coming to the "king", riding high with all the arrogance, bullying, channel's favorite damaad. His game has now been reduced to flirting, bedroom masala and pacifying Shehnaz Gill. Getting jhaapad after jhaapad, slaps. ironic that this was the same one who used to push people and treat them like trash is now being treated as one by Sana
His only game now is to run behind Sana, flirt. This is his only game.
Karma I tell ya
