Sourabh is an excellent actor.. it's not like he has a dearth of options.. why would he chose a show that requires him to play the lead opposite 15 year old is beyond me.. I had the same issue with Sehban and dislike him for playing the lead against an underage and I have the same problem here.. the issue us not the age Gap but tge underage thing.. their parents should seriously be ashamed

This... And ive seen this guy saying no to things which he dint feel were morally correct before this. so im very surprised. doosre galat kare to khud bhi karo. dosent absolve you of it. someone else would have said yes and it still would have happened but at least he would not be the one doing this.

And parents to obviously should be ashamed. actually there should be rules for not allowing minors to do adult roles

Ashnoor doesn't look like kid in show ..Rushita who is 3 years older to her look younger than her that is the reason PH didn't replace her

But, Ashnoor is still a minor is the problem.

Lol I am pretty sure PH didn’t replace her because Ashnoor is their favorite. They have always favored her over other leads. Their tweets just praising her is pretty clear of this. Actually, I don’t think PH wanted to do S2 or leap without Ashnoor. They wouldn’t have. Ashnoor also got to be the solo lead, so she accepted. The least they could have done is find an actor opposite her who was closer to her age.

Yeah she is minor .I didn't say this for age gap thing but to other post which saying she looks YOUNGER than her age ..Since she has put on weight she is not looking kid like she used to look in starting of the show

well he is going to romance a 15 year old minor that is IF there is a romantic angle between them. ive followed SRJ since his krishna days and i have a lot of respect for the way he has conducted himself off screen. he is a down to earth person who has always maintained his values so i expect better from him than him also agreeing to being the part of the system where minors are supposed to romance someone 17 years older to them. so if Ashnoor is being blamed, her parents are being blamed, the ph is being blamed, so he is also now a part of the same system by agreeing to this.

i think he is a famous enough actor to be just jumping on to this role, im sure he would have got better opportunities. And imagine a one NO from him would have made people look up and taken notice as to how wrong the system is going. I remember he had said no to wearing krishnas costume and doing a meet and greet with the audience in Indonesia because that would disrespect the role he played.

Anyway im still hoping there is no romantic angle but i know the hope is not going to come true

I think this discussion is going in circles , n I completely disagree with your opinion.

SRJ is still same person and he will refuse what he thinks wrong as per his principle.

He said in his interview he like journey of this ckt and he wanted break from costume drama .

We don't Know if there is romantic angle or not.

Even if there is Mini 's age is not 15 , ashnoor is 15

Srj will romance ckt mini not actress ashnoor.

It's ok if u guys feel below 18 yr old should not do romantic scenes at all. But she can romance 15 yr she can't romance older guy aisa kyu? Reel n real life is different. This show has proper leap. I haven't seen this kind of thread in SSK or KTHR . Will I see such thread if similar situation is seen in other shows with other actors??

Industry should have their rules ki baba we will not show any romantic scenes with below 18 yr old.

Plus Indian tv have mostly decent romantic scenes, eye locks duptta a flying.

Rarely hugs .

Kuch bhi vulgur nAhi to give moral advice.

Few shows have bold scenes but they are not extreme bold.

From Interview of ashnoor CVS are well aware of age Gap and they have their own reasons to offer this role to srj

And no one is defending crazily or fighting.

We haven't bashed old actors , or ashnoor.

We haven't called with names to people who have objection.

We have expressed our opinion just like u guys have

There are post in thread who doesn't like srj as lead because he is father of twins . His height , age, built all we're discussed . When we posted , now it is more like ashnoor is Minor .

So Now SRJ will refuse roles depending on his coactors.?

Professional actors do acting with actor who are not in talking terms, there r stories based on age Gap, baldness, skin color, weight, teen romance, unconventional love stories etc. There are actor who are playing roles older n younger than their age.

This all I have to say, and I don't want indulge further in discussion unnecessarily . Its ok if U guys don't like certain Jodi or u don't like the fact the actress is Minor. What we were concerned ki personal factor of actors were brought and discussed, and srj was blamed.

He played role of god, he is not a god and he has liberty to choose his roles .

Last question what if 21 yr old actor was casted opp ashnoor?

Will be it be moral or unethical?

Coz 21 yr old guy is still adult n ashnoor is still minor. If this Jodi is not unethical than 30_15 yr old also should not be.

If it is unethical than how makers will find 15 yr old guy to play role of 30 who will look 30 n act maturely. Even 20 yr old look kiddish. Where as girl in growing phase look 2-3 older than age till they reach in mid 20s after that their look is more static, infact they look younger than their actual age.

You do have valid points.

But these are just a few things I would like to clarify from what you have written:

@green: You are saying, we said, she can romance a 15 year old but not a older man. I don't think anyone even brought the topic of romancing a 15 year old, because there was no '15' year old in this show in the first place. There was Mickey and Bobbby, who were not 15. And, she didn't have that 'romance' factor in her life, with these two lads around. And, back then, we were all not sure if they would even have any romance. And, if they did, we did express our displeasure and later on, felt what was wrong in showing teenage love! Technically, Ashnoor is also a teenager. But, still there were many in the forum who abjected this as well.

@blue: You said, reel life, is different from real life. But, at the end of the day, she is the 15 year old. Ashnoor is Mini. That is a fact. It cannot be changed. So many actresses, deny roles, where they have to be mothers because of their age. So entirely, reel is not different from real life, because reel depends on real.

@purple: The main cause of concern for people is, that Ashnoor is underage. And, SRJ is a father to twins. Ashnoor being a teenager, makes it obnoxious that she is romancing a 33 year old. And, people here on the forum have accepted the fact, that such situations can be shown on TV. And, more than anything, people are saying (not just on the forum), that Ashnoor is not like a kid. And I 100% agree with that. But, she is a kid whatsoever at the end of the day. And should be in that line. But, if her parents have no problems, then why should we?

@Red: I understand, that actors have to be professional and choose all that comes by their way. But speaking of it, so many actors don't choose their roles because of such circumstances. And, technically speaking, not many people among the audience would even appreciate the idea of romancing an underage. Or an underage romancing an older person. Because, this is 'real romance'. And, not just some dupatta flying. This is real life and not some kasauti. I think you should know, the theme of the show is realism. And this is not to do with SRJ, this is to do with the actress, who is underage. If they can change actors, they can definitely change her as well. But, again, if I say this people will think I am bashing her or I am not a well-wisher etc. But, this is just for the sake of retaining that sanity in some people's minds. Yet, if she chose to, and her parents chose to go ahead with this, then we have no rights to object.

@bold: I agree that there are people playing roles older and younger. That's their job! If they don't do that, they are not actors! But this thing is totally differmet, she is a 15 year old playing the role of an 18 year old( which is ok), but again, she played a role of a 23 year old( which is far beyond her real age).....

I don't know, but I find it a little not so okay.... 🤷

I am not going to say or comment anything further, because our threads are heavily stalked and, we cannot state if we find anything displeasing.

And, you should watch the show from the start probably, because you should know what kind of discussions we were having rather than jumping to conclusions. And if you did, then great!

I^^ I know it looks unfair to cast 15 yr old play 23 both to 15 yr old actor n the many talented actors

Who are in 20s .

But tv industry has this trend to cast young actor, they play father n mother role at age of 18-20, by the tym they are 21-22 show has taken multiple leaps either they quit or are playing elder to actor who are some times older to them .

I guess money n instability of this tv industry is main factor. Payment to herione who was lead of 2-3 popular show will be always higher than new comer.plus trp is not static. Imagine less trp with popular actor , maker will always think about their benefits. I speaking generally not only regarding PB.

Plus casting new face after leap , auditions alag karcha, many flashbacks scenes will required to be shot n get ashnoor again n again so that audience can keep connection with new mini.

So obviously maker choose shortcut.

Srj alone can't fight this industry, ultimately he has to survive here. Now days almost every show has new lead, actor become purna after 2-3 show n only lucky gems like Sweta , ram Kapoor, Sharad kelkat play lead till end.

So it's really unfair to blame srj or ashnoor, whole tv industry will require revolution.

N thinking of creative mind is different than others, they usually don't take to account factor which are debated here , so I don't know

Well she is still not solo lead according to me

Shaisha bajaj also a lead of season 2 because the story is about sisters so she is as important as ashnoor .

And now trio are leads like previous season

SRJ ASHNOOR AND SHAISHA
