Could this unexpected mix-up change how fans see Vinny Panesar? Keep scrolling to learn more.
Vinny Panesar’s Most Intense Storylines In EastEnders
Shiv Jalota has been playing Vinny Panesar since 2019. It was the first time the Panesar family arrived in Walford. Elsewhere, he has always been a central part of the BBC soap. His stories were usually focused on his family, especially his father, Nish. And, Navin Chowdhry played Nish Panesar.
Vinny always tried to see the best in his dad. He even always sought his approval for everything. However, Nish’s true intentions were out soon. Moreover, earlier this year, fans got to see a lighter side of Shiv outside the soap. It happened when Vinny was mistakenly answered as Emmerdale on The Chase. And the clip was instantly shared on Instagram. Shiv then joked, saying, “Emmerdale, you’re having me on?” He also put a laughing emoji.
Elsewhere in the soap, Nish’s behaviour was very intense. And especially towards his wife Suki, played by Balvinder Sopal. The story ended when Nish tried to attack Suki during her wedding to Eve Unwin. However, he himself fell to his death. Vinny also had to deal with the aftermath of his brother Jag’s death. Suki framed Jags for a crime; however, Vinny had actually committed it. Elsewhere, he was also in a relationship with Dotty Cotton, played by Milly Zero.
What’s Next For Vinny
Shiv teased new developments for his character in September. He said, “I’ve been there for like six years. I’ve been very fortunate. Ben has given me a beautiful storyline that I can’t give away. He also added, “It’s exciting. Come November, there’s a lot of stuff for Vinny.
And these comments honestly hint that Vinny will be involved in major plots ahead in the soap. Elsewhere, even outside the soap, Shiv has kept their fans engaged. He had also shared the game show clip online. And it was a reminder of his presence beyond the BBC soap. Fans love how honest he is and appreciate his humour as well. Despite all this, he is still one of the fan favourites. For more EastEnders spoilers and updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
