MUMBAI: Star Plus’ beloved drama ‘Jhanak’ continues to hold its ground as a powerhouse in Indian television, consistently ranking among the top five most-watched shows since its sensational debut last year.
With compelling performances by Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja, the series has struck a deep chord with viewers, securing a steadfast fan base and retaining a commanding position on the TRP charts.
In recent weeks, the show has generated a lot of buzz as it’s going for a leap after which we could see sweeping changes to the storyline including the potential introduction of an entirely new cast.
This news stirred a wave of concern among devoted fans, particularly those who have emotionally invested in Hiba Nawab’s portrayal of the titular character, Jhanak. We had updated exclusively that the leap was postponed until the IPL season came to an end.
While the storyline shift was delayed, preparations for the future phase were very much in motion. The makers were actively scouting for fresh faces to lead the revamped narrative.
It was reported previously that Riya Sharma has been roped in for the show. This sparked excitement amongst the audience. Even Twinkle Arora, known for her acclaimed role in Udaariyaan, is going to be a part of the show.
In an exclusive interview with Tellychakkar, Twinkle Arora was asked about how Vivian Dsena reacted to the news of her getting the part in Jhanak.
Twinkle Arora revealed that she got a call from Vivian Dsena and said, “He is in vacation. Mast ghum rahe hai Dubai vagera but bhai ka call aaya tha and he said, ‘Ladki, sunn, congratulations!’ Unhone ne na ek din pehle bhi call kiya tha tab tak unhone announcement suni nahi thi toh unhone mujhe sirf kaam ke liye call kiya aur uske baad call kaat diya. And then he called me back and he was like ‘Sorry I didn’t know ke tab ho gaya tha but do your best. I understand ki this is the best change to you as before it was a protagonist and this time it’s an antagonist. It’s overall change to the character but you need to put your 100% and just rock it’.”
