Actually he is not coming across as a supporting actor. Though the Shivi storyline is not good but shiva has the maximum screenspace, more than gombi.
He has scenes with dhara, he has powerful Scenes with janardan, maami.
He has scenes with raavi.
Then comes the family and brother scenes.
He even has individual scenes with Dev, Krish and rishita.
I haven't read much about the discussions here, but this is exactly what I was talking about in EDT too! Right from the childhood scenes till date, Shiva is the most loved characters by the makers too. He has the maximum screen space with every character. The way he is loved by all the characters is so good. In fact in all The dance sequences, too, Shiva has always been at the centre with either Dhara or Raavi.
Whatever the offscreen drama happens, the PH has given him the dream role and gives him many shades and layers. They still give him the maximum screen space amongst all the male cast.
It's a competitive landscape in the real-life entertainment industry, and the love that Shiva has garnered for KD is something he cherishes too.
Even great actors from TV struggle to get work, so I firmly believe that KD has hit the jackpot with this role.
If we see, Shiva Dhara gets good screen space too!
The PH has been excellent with his character and screen space!
