‘YRKKH’ child actor Tanmay Rishi Shah branded Harry Potter of Indian telly

Rajan Shahi’s popular show ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ is currently going through an extremely dramatic phase as Kartik and Naira’s son Kairav is on verge of meeting his father.

The little boy Tanmay Rishi Shah is extremely popular on the set and has become the favourite of everyone. The little boy has a striking resemblance with actor Daniel Radcliffe who has played Harry Potter in the movie. Mohsin Khan who plays Kartik in the show says, “Fans have been messaging me regularly that Tanmay resembles Harry Potter. I have a great rapport with him. The kid is cute and has won the hearts of everyone.” On the other hand, Shivangi Joshi who plays Naira says, “Yes he is our very own Harry Potter. Tanmay resembles Daniel Radcliffe a lot. He is a very sweet and jolly kid. Our bonding is very well and we have a great time on the set. His vibes and energy is very positive.” Rajan Shahi the maker of the show also adds, “The way Shivangi bonds and takes care of Tanmay is so endearing. There is a collage picture of Daniel and Tanmay which was sent by Mohsin to me which was an amazing observation.”

The child actor has an amazing bond with Mohsin and Shivangi on and off-camera. In fact, Shivangi who is his onscreen mother takes care of Tanmay a lot and is very protective of him. Interestingly Daniel Radcliffe celebrated his birthday on 23rd of July and turned 30. Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has his own Harry Potter. The audience has witnessed little Tanmay’s acting skills they all have loved and showered their blessings on him.

Prior to Tanmay, Shaurya Shah played the role of Kairav but was written out from the show abruptly. Later his mother gave her take on Shaurya’s exit. She was cited in a leading publication saying, “By now 100 stories must be floating around but the truth is that Shaurya is down with viral fever, past 5 days and he couldn’t go for shoots. In fact, he has not attended his school even today. I have all his medical certificates as proof too. So, they (production house, Director’s Kut) had to replace him on immediate basis.”

Since Shaurya’s exit, fans have taken to social media to express their dismay at the producer’s decision to replace him with Tanmay.
