Frankly speaking when i first saw Sumit in d initial promos of HD i was like who is dis maha lallu actor they have taken as male lead opposite rati? I hated his hairstyle. Then to add to dis rishi's shayaris were lame but one thing i did notice:his diction esp. of Urdu words was spot on. I was intrigued. Also in all d interviews promoting HD his quiet confidence stood out. Then Sumit slowly but gradually came into his own portraying d adorable yet irritating kirayadaar. U just couldn't decide whether he was an outright positive character or a negative one. Sumit used his expressive eyes to confound d viewers and d layers he gave to rishi were fascinating to watch. Of course his role is an author backed one and d testimony to dis r d killer dialogues and one liners dat rishi is identified with today. But Sumit added something to rishi: a vulnerability dat makes u want to root for him inspite of his cunning, his lies and his manipulative ways. Also oddly his jugaadu ways were a delight to watch coz he was so casual and flippant about it. Lol. An example of dis flippancy: when indira asks him how he managed to land in macau and he oh so casually tells her he sold his friend's bike to fund his trip. Lol. He is a refreshing male lead to watch and i hope we get d initial rishi back. Enough of being d doormat whom d sharmas just wipe their dirt on and dismiss in a second. Keep at it Sumit and u will very soon get ur well deserved due. Also on a side note my daadi and mum love Sumit. They find him to be a very decent man. Hahaha

totally agree :)

For me, Sumit's portrayal of Rishi's desperate need for Indira, his puppy dog like behavior with Indira, and his stunned, mute state when his house of cards comes crashing down, is uncomfortably real life like. As Rishi is not a cookie-cut type character where one could pull out the standard acting tools, Sumit's work has been truly commendable



Watching Rishi has me squirming sometimes as he reminds me so much of a near and dear one in my life. Rishi has the same deer in headlights look that my loved one has had when he ended up in trouble. Sumit was able to portray all the nuances well! Kudos to him👏



Whenever I read your posts I always end up nodding my head in agreement 😆 Even in this case, I do share your sentiments :)

Sumit has really impressed me with the way he has portrayed Rishi/Ricky and the manner in which he has showcased every emotion felt by the character. And yes, it is very close to real life. Rishi's complete devotion to Indira, his longing for her and the shock of losing her once the truth was out- very commendable indeed. Sumit sure does own Rishi. He's living the character.

I know everyone has his/her preference but I do feel a bit disheartened when I come to IF because I feel that Sumit is incredibly underrated and at times sidelined. In my opinion it is very easy to play rough and tough, Romeo or Mills and Boons kinda characters but not many actors can pull of a Rishi Kumar/Ricky Diwan. I wish people would start appreciating Sumit a bit more.

I adore this guy. Sumit Vats- take a bow 👏

Yes this is so true. I personally don't even find Sumit attractive from a facial features point of view. But boy does he inhabit the skin of Rishi!
