About Rati's decision. I know many of you want her to leave.
I have also no problem , if she leaves or plays Indu's role.But I am in little disagreement with her POV.I couldn't understand , why she says she don't wanna play grown up Indira.I think this is not correct approach. Other side actors like Smita & Sandeep ki baat alag hai. But Rati is main lead. The Character Indira is defined with her. This character has given her so much fame. So Why she doesn't want to carry it to its logical conclusion. Every person in this world gets Old & also dies , this is the only logical conclusion. And Indira's character should also be shown to its ending. How actually she lived with changing Age.And there are lots of Examples in both telly world where young Actors & Actresses have played Old character roles. Smriti Irani started Tulsi as 25 year old girl. After leap she played 45 year old woman & after another leap she played 70 year old woman. But in no way harmed her career , but gave her career the new flight.Same is case of Sakshi Tanwar. Anupam Kher acted as old man in his very first film ( when he was quite young) & won National Award for it.I think Rati should reconsider it & instead of Playing Indu , she should play Indira only.
Ashish ji it is purely actors choice.. we cannot force Rati to play 50 years old woman similar we cannot force sumit to play 50 year old man
the examples you gave, those actors played that roles based on their wish and many quit the show for the same reason...
some popular and good actors never liked to have baby bump when they are shown pregnant in the show so story continued for 2 years without any baby bump and showed them giving birth to babies, apni apni wish... how can we say it is not correct approach when we are not present at the situation...
if Rati rejects she has full right and illa bedi have to accomdate the story line if she want Rati in her show or illa bedi can say she cannot, Rati can decide if she want to continue or not... it is not rude or unprofessional.
Aniktha in PR continued as mother just because she had the contract with Ekta otherwise she is more willing to leave the show than play a mother of grownup kids... that is purely their choice
i will be very happy if Rati plays both Indira and Indu roles but i wonot say it is wrong decision if she wonot play grownup Indira...
