But they decide to request the school principal of to give her another chance.

Child actor Aaina Mehta, who struck a chord with the audience with her fine act in Star One’s Shakuntala has now been roped in to play the title role in Zee’s popular daily, <em>Aapki Antara</em>. A Sagar Arts’ favourite, Mehta will now play the coveted role of the older Antara post the leap which is in the offing.
