So if his character had just taken salt and pepper hair and the name, then why even evaluate him with the previous Bajaj. Though it is so heartwarming to see how RBians who couldn't think of anyone else being Bajaj loved him back so much that they don't want anyone else to be Bajaj than him.
So i felt the same with Prerna. Her Characterization was such since day1. Just the situation changed. There has been ZERO growth of the Characters only the one who did was Bajaj and his family.
