I think from my observations till now, Shivangi doesn't fit the mold of very innocent types - like feature-wise, there is a sharpness to her face which makes her a better fit for more spunky/mature characters like Naira or Aradhna from her previous shows. Pranali's features exude the bholi bhali types that fit Prarthana's requirements perfectly. Even in Durga or YRKKH, her character was very innocent in nature (at first at least). I know good acting overshadows whatever disadvantage one's facial features might have. But who are we talking about here, ITV that runs on the lead couple's chemistry? No chance, them looking good together is pretty important. And nor do the actors have enough leeway, like in films, to change style-wise to experiment and establish their acting.
Seriously,
This
vs this?
For Prarthana? It's an easy pick. You see what I mean?
Agreed, agreed!
Realistically, Shivangi wouldn’t have even looked like a 20 yr old Prarthana, Pranali fits that age perfectly.
Shivangi, no matter how much makeup or styling you pile on, looks older for the part. Plus like you said, Pranali naturally carries that sweetness and innocence on her face while Shivangi doesn’t. She has to act to bring it out and even that looks bad… so yeah.
