Viewers' acceptance makes Toral 'Anandi' Rasputra happy!

Toral Rasputra, who replaced Pratyusha Banerjee as Anandi on popular show "Balika Vadhu", is happy that finally the viewers are accepting her in the role.

Sharing an incident, she said: "Recently, we went to Kashmir for the shoot, and many tourists were there. Many people came to me and told me that 'we liked your work in the show'," she said on the set of the show here.

"This was a positive sign from them (viewers). For the very first time, I had gone out of Mumbai far away from our regular sets to shoot," she said.

"For me, it's a good sign that slowly and slowly people are accepting me as Anandi and I am really happy about it," she added.

Toral replaced Pratyusha on the show on March 4 this year, while Pratyusha had stepped into the shoes of Avika Gor to play the grown-up Anandi in the show in 2010 when it took a five-year leap.

Aired on Colors, the show deals with child marriage and its repercussions.
