EASTENDERS fans are livid after a beloved 'underused' character 'goes missing' with no explanation - begging 'bring him back!'

The BBC soap has a large cast, with multiple storylines on the go at once, but some EastEnders fans have noticed some characters aren't getting as much screen time as possible.

And for some, the absence of Ravi Gulati in recent episodes has bothered them the most.

The character - played by Aaron Thiara - was a potential victim in the run up to the Christmas Day drama with 'The Six'.

Thankfully for soap fans, he wasn't the dead body on the floor of the Vic, and he actually did his best to help Suki Panesar away from her husband Nish.

But since then, Ravi hasn't appeared in that many scenes, and it's prompted a number of comments on a soap fan forum.

One wrote: "Also where has Ravi gone. Been missing in the episodes too long. Though I thought he was excellent with Denzel and Nugget few weeks back."

Another added: "I don't know where Ravi's been but it makes everything just a little less fun."

A third commented: "He has been underused, he probably won't be as busy as 2023 and high up in the appearance count but I hope he comes back to the forefront soon."

Meanwhile on X - formerly Twitter - one asked: "Are we ever gonna see a confrontation with Nish & Ravi? They’ve had zero scenes together since #Sixmas

"Ravi wanted Nish cut out the family but now what he’s cool with his daughter living with Nish now? Happy to be his business partner now Suki’s signed it all over?"

Another added: "Sorry, but the fact Stacey, Jean, Eve all warned Kat about Nish, the coat, him kicking her out after she briefly ended it doesn't send alarm bells ringing? What will? Also where the hell is Ravi? Why isn't he warning her too? Get he has to think of his kids but…"

Thankfully for fans, it seems like Ravi could be back on their screens more in the near future, as Aaron teased further conflict between his alter ego and his manipulative father.

Speaking to The Sun Online at this week's TV Choice Awards, he said: "Not to step on too many eggshells for the next six months, but there's a lot of unfinished business to come regarding Nish and their whole dynamic.

"There is a lot of betrayal that we will delve into."
