Siddharth Shukla has come in as a totally new character so that's why it was easy to make his mark.
As for T she is the third actress to play the same role.
The first replacement was inevitable and it was planned because of the leap in the story.Even then people did not accept Pratts immediately as Anandi because of many issues ranging from her peformance and the fact that they could not connect her with Avika's Anandi and last but not the least the physical appearnce of Partyusha did not match the perception people had in mind when they thought of grown up Anandi.She was shorter than Avika.Imagine a grwon up Anandi looking smaller than the child Anandi.But the strong storyline they had made up for that was lacking in post leap Anandi and gradually people started accepting Pratyusha as Anandi.It took many months to accept Pratyusha as Anandi
Toral has come in as a replacement in unexpected circumstances.On top of it she is walking into a role that is already established so it will be lot more difficult for her.She doesn't have time on her side like Pratyusha had in getting into the role.
I am not a fan of Pratyusha and I am yet to accept T as Anandi.But i think comparisions with Sid and Pratyusha are not warrented because the situations are totally different.
