Not just Ananya, I like the new cast as well. Raj seems a tad wimpy, but even he perks up, like when he told Ananya & mom that Viraj was @ the hospital when Ananya was being operated (w/ the old PH, such coincidences were never disclosed to Jhanvi or Raghav). Mrs Ghosh has been cast just right, and I loved Nidhi as well. Oh, and the boss? He reminds me exactly of...
me 😆 When I get into arguments w/ my wife or sister, I quickly get to the point where I shrug and do a 'whatever'! He's like that!
I'd really like to know who plays the boss, and Nidhi, and I hope that they both have prominent roles in the serial. And again, like Likarsh implied, just b'cos there's a girl in the plot doesn't mean that there has to be romance - it's not needed for Ananya, and its not needed for Nidhi. Nor for Raj, Viraj or Mr Boss.
W/ the old PH, I at least stopped pretending that it was about Jhanvi or DV. But the new PH brought it back in such a way, w/o being in your face that this is what the serial is about! Ananya, in her media crusader avatar, is really taking Viraj to the woodshed, and both Raj and Mr Boss are just playing background supportive roles. And Ananya's actions benefit Jhanvi's heart, which hopefully will adapt to this body and wont stop everytime Viraj does something. I do hope Ananya doesn't die @ the end of this serial. Also, when the feminists came in yesterady and one of them slapped Viraj, I was amused @ the idea of every wronged women taking it out on him, since Ananya has made him the poster boy for the abusive hubby.
If they do show any love tracks, I suggest showing it on the side, and involve Nidhi as well. 😈😆 But it's okay to keep romance out of the story from this point on.
