MUMBAI: TV show Tenali Rama, which hit the tube for the first time in July 2017, is all set to wrap up on the 13th November, thereby completing a run of over three years. The makers have informed the cast and the crew about this development.
Protagonist portrayer Krishna Bharadwaj confirms, "Yes, the show is ending. I've literally lived the character of Rama and immersed myself in it to an extent that I have forgotten how I lived before the show.".
The actor plans to take a break of six months before he takes up a new project. He shares, "I will take up a new show after a gap of six months as I plan to undergo a transformation and adopt a look that is drastically different from Tenali Rama. I am bald and have a slight paunch for the part, so I'll grow hair and lose some weight to break the image. I also plan to do a new photo shoot.".
Tarun Khanna, who joined the show this July to essay the new king ‘Raja Krishnadevaraya’ adds, "The rumour of the show going off air has been doing the rounds for some time now, however, we learnt later that it will continue till the next year. In fact, the channel had also planned to change its time-slot. I have no clue why this decision has been taken.".

While the journey for the actor is coming to an end, he feels grateful for the opportunity.
"Tenali Rama's popularity with the audience lay in the fact that it was unique, it was entertaining as well as informative. It ran for three-and-a-half years, which is no mean feat. Though I joined the show in July 2020, it's been a fruitful journey. I am sad about the fact that I had started enjoying the part, however it's time to bid adieu to the audience.".
Tenali Rama also features Aasiya Kazi as the female protagonist and Pankaj Berry as ‘Tathacharya’.
