Middle-class, homely and a 'woman' through and through, Priya could well be the soul sister to Priya Tendulkar's famous character Rajni. With a strong woman's instinct, she is the caretaker of the family and also the black sheep, till she decides to get married. "Priya is a refreshing change from all the female leads, as her life doesn't revolve around dreams of getting married," says Gautam Hegde, screenwriter of Saath Nibhana Saathiya on Star Plus and Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon on Star One.

A spoilt brat but very sensitive by nature, Suhana is genuinely affectionate and affable. Brought up in a well-to-do family, everyone expected her marriage into a middle-class family to result in a disaster. If it didn't, it's because she is both loveable and smart. "Her appeal lies in the fact that she is genuine in whatever she does ' even if that means asking her mother-in-law to show how one goes about with household chores. She behaves like a girl and is fun," says actor Surekha Sikri.

This decade's very own Tulsi, Archana is straight out of a matrimonial ad. She portrays the typical strong-woman character who will never falter though their men might. The marriage came as a shock, where the husband didn't turn out to be who she thought he was. Yet she stood by him and has now changed him to a better human being. "The show is coming to an end now, but one saw that she achieved what she had set out to do. Archana represents the strength of a woman," says actress Gauri Pradhan.
