MUMBAI: Star Plus’ much-loved drama Jhanak has continued to dominate the small screen since its debut last year, firmly securing its place among the top five shows on Indian television.
With stellar performances from Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja in the lead roles, the show boasts a dedicated fan following and remains a consistent favourite on the TRP charts.
Recently, Jhanak became the centre of intense speculation, with reports suggesting that the show was gearing up for a major leap one that would see a refreshed storyline and a brand-new cast.

The rumours sparked concern among fans, especially those deeply attached to Hiba Nawab’s portrayal of the titular character, fearing her potential exit from the series.
In a surprising turn of events, the planned leap has now been postponed. According to insider sources, the delay comes as a result of scheduling changes surrounding the highly anticipated IPL 2025 season. The news has been warmly welcomed by viewers, many of whom are delighted at the opportunity to enjoy more episodes with the current cast.
Adding to the buzz, reports suggest that Arjit Taneja and Shagun Singh have been approached to take on the lead roles once the leap is eventually introduced.
While there has been no official confirmation from the production team or the actors themselves, the prospect of Arjit and Shagun sharing the screen for the first time has already generated significant excitement.
For now, Jhanak will continue to follow its existing narrative with the original leads at the forefront. With the leap temporarily shelved, audiences can expect plenty of gripping drama and emotional twists in the coming episodes.
Fans of the show can rest easy at least for the time being as their favourite characters remain very much a part of the story.
Stay tuned for the latest updates from the world of television, OTT, and cinema!
