I do not understand how did he pass the audition to be even cast as someone like sujal, beyond my comprehension that Ekta chose this guy to replace Rajeev.
Shabbir-Rajeev had a great bonding, and I really loved the onscreen chemistry of the brothers too, not cheesy yet something to always remember. Even I loved Chaitanya as Akshat, his character was refreshing, someone who was a sujal fanboy, after 200 episodes of everyone hating on sujal, finally Akshat arrives to realize what a gen Sujal actually was.
I loved Akshat (Chaitanya) but I never liked Charu.
In one of his interviews Rajeev mentioned that when he was younger, he had broken his nose while pulling a swimming stunt. He underestimated the depth of the pool and tried putting one of those swimming stunts that swimmers do in competitions. He was laughing at himself for being silly enough to pull that. End result he hurt his nose bad. This is from Rajeev's own interview.
Another true story: Gurpreet had to undergo a nose surgery and they sorta broke his nose to resemble Rajeev's broken nose.
The media had widely covered it that time, I found a Tellychakkar article too, they are on Ekta's side so they have used 'supposedly/allegedly', but a lot of news portals/channels (SBS) covered this news then in no uncertain terms.

Ekta is mad. She had also made Aditee Gupta go to a dentist and get stuff done to correct her smile before she launched her. Another actor had gone on record to say that Ekta asks for actors kundlis and her astrologer goes through them; only if she gets a green signal from the astro does she cast the actor.
