Actually if a newcomer is good in acting then paro rudra or laila can be played by any newcomer. I don't know why people are giving too much importance to heroine's age. Sanaya is only one year old than Ashish and she looks young.
I am sure that nautanki films have done some screen test before casting Sanaya. They are experienced enough to decide whether the male lead and female lead are good together.If it is in big screen people have no issue in watching 30 plus heroine in the role of college girl or teenager. They don't have any issue in watching a cinema in which hero is younger than heroine. But when it comes to the small screen especially in case of Sanaya they are very much bothered about the wellbeing of the serial.
There is no rule that heroine should be younger than hero or wife should be young comparing to husband.. Few people and their stereotyped perspective.
And about the jealous part, see majority of serial viewers are females,obviously they will discuss more about male lead,situation will be same even if Deepika Padukone played the role of Paro.
