I personally feel the other actors are really underrated. VJ has been in this industry for 11-12 years. He's done some major hit shows, still, he hasn't reached the level of popularity (that he deserves). I am not even comparing him with Nakuul/Harshad...let's take for example that Imli guy what was his name Farhaan? and the 3rd gen guy Sai something or Mansi Srivastava,..they are all more popular than say a VJ or KaranVgrover ...Jay Soni was absent from the industry for a long time due to lack of work... and all these guys are excellent actors... During Udaan days VJ wasn't even considered for best actor nomination once I think...if I am not wrong...but people like Vivian Dsena made it to the list..and this was just Colors award...so many such instances... they haven't got the recognition they deserve...
Mansi...isn't popular.
Yeah Gul shows (Nakuul, Barun, Fahmaan) give crazy online popularity and off screen relationship drama too.
But Vj isn't struggling to get offers, he is a fairly known name and comes up often in casting rumors, Kvg and Jay Soni are unfortunately never going to be the first choice to play the angry toxic lover which was popularised on itv post ipkknd, so yeah they will always get called for the good guy roles which are rare on itv. Award shows are lazy and won't bother putting any effort into actually looking for good acting, just reward the ones with most online hype.
I think only Shaheer is the one who got popularity by playing varied and majorly non toxic roles. And is consistently on tv. Kvg and Jay Soni couldn't get that...Shaheer might be the go to popular face for good boy roles and he is finally moving away from tv like Sobti so lettuce see.
