Manav Gohil to essay King Krishnadevaraya in 'Tenali Rama'

Mumbai: Actor Manav Gohil is looking forward to being part of upcoming TV show ‘Tenali Rama’.

Manav will be seen essaying the role of Krishnadevraya, the King of Vijaynagar Empire, in the comedy drama. The show will air on SAB TV from July.

"It's time to get back together with SAB TV and it feels great. The last I did ‘Yam Hain Hum' with them and that had left a very good taste in my head about the people," Manav said in a statement.

He added: "This time it's Krishnadevaraya, a very powerful king that I am portraying. It's a comedy show and I am looking forward to working with a new set of people. The show is "Tenali Rama" and I am so ready to get rolling with this one."

‘Tenali Rama’ is a story of the legendary poet Tenali (played by Krishna Bharadwaj) in Krishnadevraya's court who uses creative methods to solve even the trickiest problems.
