Where is the confirmation of this? No one has as yet flagged any reliable report. 

If he has in fact left, he must have had very serious differences with the PH to give up, not the present role, but the far more important one in the follow up serial.

The three impressive Chanakyas I have seen on TV were 

1)Chandraprakash Dwivedi in the 1990 Chanakya, which is the gold standard for a pre-Mauryan era historical on Indian TV,

2) Manish Wadhwa in the 2012 Chandragupta Maurya, whose sheer, unsmiling presence and effortless gravitas were extremely impressive, and

3) Manoj Joshi in the recent Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat, who was avuncular but still dominating.

Even without the distortions, I would not slot Chetan Pandit , otherwise a very capable actor, with these three. For me at least, he never quite made the grade. Plus his Sanskrit enunciation was abysmal. 😑

With the distortions, he was reduced to looking like an ADC to Porus, not his wise, all knowing, dominating mentor.

Now, seeing the goings on in what passes for a script in Porus, which will undoubtedly be pretty much the same in the follow up serial, I don't see how it matters who is cast as Chanakya, a 6 pack abswala Tarun or someone else. So I don't rejoice at Chetan Pandit quitting, if in fact he has quit. It hardly matters if he stays or goes.

This said, the idea of Tarun as Chanakya makes me shudder. Radhagupt, yes, but Chanakya?

Chandraprakash Dwivedi was way too good as Chanakya and that show as a whole was brilliantly done. Some of the dialogues about refugees, nation building, disruptive tactics and stuff were brilliant. Ofcourse it's a bit heavy on Sanskritised Hindi, so people used to Urdu Hindi/Hindustani (as most of us are) will find it difficult to follow.

As far as this show is concerned, this is gone case. I shudder to think what the follow up is going to be. Tarun as Chanakya is OK. My preference would have been Manish Wadhwa as Chanakya, but unfortunately he is being wasted as Kansa in some Krishna show
