The biggest difference? The actor behind the lead.
In Gen 3, we had Harshad Chopra. And love him or hate him, the truth is — Harshad had that level of influence. He could speak up, suggest changes in the script, and even clash with Shahi if he felt the character wasn’t going in the right direction. That’s exactly what happened — and he chose to leave when he didn’t agree with how his character was being handled.
Now in Gen 4, we have Rohit Purohit — and dont come after me. He’s a talented actor, and he’s doing a good job. But this is his first big lead opportunity in 14 years. Yes, he’s been in the industry for long, and yes, he’s done solid work — but he’s mostly been underrated and known for grey or villain roles.
So obviously, someone like Rohit, who finally got this big breakthrough, is not going to risk clashing with someone like Shahi over character direction. He doesn’t hold that same kind of script control or leverage Harshad had. And that’s exactly why Armaan’s character going to dragged through the mud, and we’ll likely see him go even further down — only to be brought back again later for drama or forced patch-up. The script will do what the creators want, and the actor won’t resist it.
