Anandi in an all-new avatar
It showcases how her life changes after marriage and how the child deals with it. Till now the serial has been dealing with the story of child marriage and various family aspects related to it. Now, the makers have woken up to the fact that they have a message to share with the entire nation and would like to focus on the practical difficulties related to child marriage.
This, along with the fact that the story needed a change. As Sunjoy Waddhwa of Sphere Origins (the producers of the show) says, “Age leaps let us experiment further with the storyline. The five-year-leap is a natural progression. We wanted to bring in a refreshing change to the show and characters — new look, new situations with new twist and turns”. But what is the new twist? Before the leap, Anandi and Jagya (as Jagadish is fondly called) were asked to live apart for five years because both of them have become teenagers now and passing through a ‘critical’ age. Living apart would make sure that everything goes the way it should till they grow up and become responsible.
Post leap, the storyline shifts to a time when Anandi and Jagya have grown up and are busy in their individual lives. While both of them miss each other, they have been forced to stay apart and the time to finally meet each other fast approaching. The new Anandi — Pratyusha Banerjee — was introduced in the serial last week and has been getting mixed reactions from the viewers. While some say she is the perfect Anandi to have taken over from Avika Gor, others feel that her features are too sharp and model-like — a contrast to the fat and cute Avika.
