In my opinion... these days 50 year olds are not "old" people. Whatever Archana is wearing is not out of place at all... BUT because the actor Ankita is actually so young, that in order to look the part she needs to look aged to look convincing. I mean an actual 55 year old can and do wear leggings and kurtis, can have their hair up in a ponytail... can have a well maintained figure... and might be a younger looking person... but will never look like a 20 something ! So Savita and Sulo inspite of going without grey hairs, and thick glasses still manage to look their part, where as Archana fails.In her current avatar she looks way too young to look the part of a mother of grown up children. For a pretty young thing like her, extra efforts are necessary... a saree adds maturity. Even my 13 year old niece looked like a young woman when she dressed in a saree recently at a wedding !!! Even if Archana wore salwar kameezes, because its Ankita wearing them, it has to , for the lack of a better term, "dowdy" looking... or else its impossible to make Ankita "look" old ! I am NOT judging Ankita here... its her choice at the end of the day... As for calling her unprofessional on this ground.. well yeah in other circumstances it might have been so... but then I don't even find the story tellers very professional either... the makers are the most unprofessional people here... they show no passion for their work... so I can't blame the actors here. The only people who are actually passionate about this show are the viewers I guess.

I encourage my mom to wear kurtas, esp while traveling...or on picnic...😕
She didnt wear this 20 yrs ago, coz this trend wasnt back then...
I watch everyday women in train be it first or second class, women groom themselves well...even who are near 60 😕

I have seen Ankita discarding the Cv's track, when they are illogical...right on camera...which I dont think majority of establish actors still do it...
till the end moment she gives hints what actually should happen and what is happeneing in show(be it Purvi's leave, or her pregnancy)
But I guess this is noticed by none...

I agree she dont look old, so do majority of mom on television...I saw Manasi salvi yest in another show...

Dont worry dear ppl, Anki will be leaving this sooner or later...🥺

This happens many times when there are teenage/college going daughters in the house. As they get exposed to latest trends and fashion, or due to broadmindedness/frankness with their mothers, they encourage their mothers to follow it too. My elder sister toh guides my Mom about spas, skin care, makeup etc. which she never did earlier. Shekhar kapoor's ex wife (I forgot her name) during her comeback said that her daughter has told her to wear modern gowns and designer wear etc like other heroines, so she is doing it.
I don't watch the show but someone (I think Ashu) told me that Ovi tells Archana to start wearing suits again? Well, I have to admit the way they justified the salwar suit thingy was clever cos a few can definitely identify with it.

Who has grey hair in PR ???
Manjusha , Savita , Sulochna , Manav , Vinod ...all these characters are older than Archana ...so why only this demand of greying your hair for Ankita only ...
I think to grey the hair , the demand should first go to Sulochna and Savita ( the oldest girl in PR )
The character of Varsha is just a few years younger than Archana but she too is wearing full make up, has not done grey hair ( she is supposed to be poor )
These days women who are 50 do not have grey hair ( I am talking about the majority who live in cities and have rich husbands like Archana has ) , they get their hair died and enjoy experimenting with different hair styles ...


True. All characters in PR need a touch or two of grey. Must be biggest customers of hair dye.
Both Savita and Sulochana (70-80?)need to look archaic, Archana is 50ish? right?
Just that a little grey would help us 'remember' that these characters are actually that age range.
I know and I am as well one of the many who started using hair dyes at an alarming age of 20...😆. So dressing well (AND STYLISH) and coloring my hair when I am older is my right. But then I dont want to remember I am old..:D

I kinda agree.. It is confusing for normal viewers to see a character wo once wore sarees then wear slawars and then wear kurtis as the age of the character gets older!
We here on the forum know Anki and why she is doing so but may normal viewers just know her as Archana not Ankita so they dont know why she is dressing the way she is...
I would have prefer consistency.. for her to remain with wearing sarees..

That is my POV

Ankita is not interested in playing this character anymore.They should let her go.

I agree. Purvi is looking older than archana. Its ridiculous. Ankita may look gorgeous but archana is looking sooo out of place... I think she should just leave if she isn't interested in playing archana...

Ankita wanted to leave now but Ekta stopped her till Feb / March next year ..Archana will be slowly faded out or maybe till then they will find another replacement for her ..
