Tanvi Thakkar is the new actress to join the core cast of the show as she replaced actress Yamini Malhotra and is now seen playing the character of Shivani Chavan.

With all due respect to the earlier actress who played the character of Shivani Chavan, I’m giving a lot of ‘me’ to the character and I believe that the viewers are liking it. - Tanvi Thakkar

India Forums asked Tanvi about responsibilities on an actor after he/she replaces other actor, she said, "Replacing an actor does come with a lot of responsibilities. The person who’ve earlier filled the shoes of the character has given the character a lot of herself and whatever character you play, you make it your own. With all due respect to the earlier actress who played the character of Shivani Chavan, I’m giving a lot of ‘me’ to the character and I hope and believe that the viewers are liking it”.

Talking about what prompted her to take up the show, Tanvi had said earlier, “Undoubtedly, the show is super successful but that’s not what derived me to accept the offer. There’s a little story behind this. I got a call from the production house on my father’s birthday. He is no more with us. I believed that it’s a sign and that the God and my father is blessing me and probably giving a gift to me in the form of this show. It was an emotional moment for me and hence I took it up. I believe in signs and anyway I’m a little filmy and emotional in real life (smiles)”.

Tanvi looks so young. She could play Devi’s friend or Sayi’s older sister. The other actress suited the character of Shivani better.
