I really enjoyed SDB in the early eps of Krishna, and my problem with him in the later eps (not handled totally handled by RS, as explained in my post and subsequent discussion halfway down pg 46: http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1066759&TPN=46 ) was not his acting but the off-sync dubbing and gaudy make-up they started to give him. Dragged him down terribly, which is really sad cuz I saw the Sanskrit movie Adi Shankaracharya and agree he was amazing and authentic in it, proving his immense potential. As far as his introduction coming late, if you check out that post on pg 46 you'll see clips of them continuing with Swapnil even further, upto the Varnavat fire and Dwarka Nirmaan. After the latter, RS apparently declined in health so the show went on hiatus and when they continued, his sons were in control and rushed in SDB. Thats why his entry is so sudden and choppy, followed by a drop in overall quality that brings down the rest of the serial after that point IMO.
