Anjum Farookhi enters Jagya and Anandi's life..

Anjum Farookhi who was last seen in Zee TV's Aapki Antara is back on screen with a different look in COLORS' Balika Vadhu. As per the new promo, there is a new girl entering Jagya's (Shashank Vyas) life, and Anjum will be playing the character. She will eventually be a reason for concern in Jagya and Anandi's (Pratyusha Banerjee) marital life.

When contacted, Anjum confirmed the news saying, "Yes I am playing the character of Gauri. She is very lively and strong minded; she meets Jagya in a bus as shown in the promo. She is doing her medicine just like Jagya, and they both meet in the college. There will be a love angle that will develop. I was getting various offers, but Balika Vadhu is a strong show. Above all, this is not a regular character and offers lots of challenges".

According to our source, "As we know, Jagya is upset as Anandi is not welcome for a change. This eventually paves a way for Jagya getting attracted towards Gauri. However, there is a twist in Gauri's character which will be eventually disclosed".

Anjum was earlier to do Vrat Khatayein on Sony which is apparently shelved now. "Yes I was going to do that show, but it was getting delayed for some reason. Now I am free to take up new roles".
 
Anjum has started shooting and her entry sequence will air soon.
