Akshay to Sumedh: Actors who charmed us as Lord Krishna onscreen

Nitish Bharadwaj in BR Chopra’s Mahabharat

Nitish Bharadwaj is still remembered as Lord Krishna in the iconic show Mahabharata. His calm demeanour and aura impressed everyone.

Sarvadaman in Ramanand Sagar’s Shri Krishna

The next Lord Krishna that could match up to Nitish Bharadwaj's standards was Sarvadaman D. Banerjee. He was amazomg.

Swapnil Joshi in Ramanand Sagar’s Shri Krishna

Swapnil's portrayal as young Krishna has etched everyone's mind, all thanks to his cuteness and boyish charm,

Saurabh Raaj Jain in Mahabharat

After the iconic Krishna in the 1988 show, Saurabh played the charming Lord Krishna in 2013 Mahabharat. His smile and his cuteness made a place in our hearts.

Vishal Karwal in Dwarkadheesh Bhagwaan Shree Krishn

Have you seen his cute little dimple? Ufff, Vishal too managed to leave a mark in people's mind with his portrayal of Lord Krishna.

Akshay Kumar in OMG - Oh My God

Though it was for a short time, we can't deny the fact that Akshay Kumar as Lord Krishna looked endearing and delightful.

Sumedh Mudgalkar in Radha Krishn

He has now ruled many hearts with his natkhat pana. Sumedh's expressive eyes and his charming smile were enough to make us fall in love with him.
