| - Vas Mehta is a main character in the show Aaron Stone. He has a strong Indian accent and lives in India. He is portrayed by Canadian actor Vasanth Saranga. Vas is first introduced in the pilot episode, "Hero Rising". Vas, along with his brother Ram Mehta, are first introduced as gamer friends of Charlie Landers. Vas and Ram live all the way in Kolkata, India- while Charlie is assumed to live in either Canada or the USA. The brothers and Charlie met through the game Hero Rising. Vas and his brother then proceed to play the game with Charlie and his brother Jason Landers after Jason makes an avatar. Vas is a computer obsessed geek, whom is a genius in the arts of cracking codes, gathering information, on occasion hacking (but for all good purposes) and of course is a player with a high class reputation in the game Hero Rising. Vas' avatar is Vas Suvious. His avatar is blonde and wears a green action suite similar to Aaron Stone's design. Vas dressed up as Xero in "Not So Friendly Skies Parts 1 & 2" for a gaming party. While he has not dressed as his avatar, his brother Ram did in the same episode. Vas and Ram often make references to pop culture and in "Rockin' The Free World", Vas implies his favorite singer is Kelly Clarkson. Though he and his brother are apparently single, desperate for girlfriends and very low on the social scale- in contrast to Ram, Vas seemingly makes a larger effort to better his social life. In "From Hero To Xero" he states, in spite of being the only boy in class and having to wear a leotard, he takes tumbling lessons to meet girls. In "Hunt Me? Hunt You!" he ponders dressing like his avatar to gain social status, only for Ram to say that it will result in him having 'LESS friends'. Also, a brief mention is made about his ex-girlfriend, but the statement was made by Ram and only to call her 'beastly', in the sense that she was unattractive. These aspects might push him slightly above Ram on the social scale. Vas can be a bit random at times and sometimes butchers English teen slang. These quirks are meant as comic relief for the audience. However, in contrast to Ram, Vas seems a bit mature, as well as calm and sensible in tough situations. In spite of his social status, and Ram's teasing, Vas seems quite confident and is usually very happy. He is apparently very smart, especially with computers. However, he sometimes loses his patience and quarrels with Ram, he also becomes irritated with Jason Landers' reckless video gaming skills in "Xero Control". Personality wise, Vas is seen as having a comparison to Charlie while Ram can be compared to Jason. It isn't specified who is older, but beside speculation that they are twins, Vas' character traits lead people to believe he could be older than Ram.
