Saru: Anushka Merchande Aka Anika returns in a new avatar; says 'This has been such an exciting shift for me as an actor'

Saru continues to captivate audiences with its drama and unexpected twists. Anika (Anushka Merchande) has been carefully manipulating events to force an engagement with Ved (Shagun Pandey), but her schemes finally caught up with her. In a dramatic turn, the truth about her deceit is exposed by Saru (Mohak Matkar) and Ved, leaving the entire family shocked by the extent of her betrayal. With everyone turning against her, the story takes a sharp turn, and so does Anika. The surprising comeback is, she returns in a completely transformed avatar. In a simple salwar suit with no makeup, she does not look like 'the' Anika at all. Her voice is softer, and her body language has shifted from assertive to calm and kind. There's a sincerity in her manner now, making her almost unrecognizable from the manipulative Anika everyone once knew. To bring this shift to life, Anushka Merchande paid special attention to Anika's gestures, voice, expressions, and overall energy, to show Anika's shift towards a quieter and more thoughtful version of herself. Talking about the transformation, Anushka Merchande said, 'This has been such an exciting shift for me as an actor. Anika has always been the one pulling the strings, constantly manipulating situations to her advantage. As everything suddenly falls apart for her, even her character takes a turn. Exploring this softer, more reflective side of Anika has been exciting. The look transformation with simple clothing and no makeup has been a dramatic shift, and honestly, this has helped me access a totally different side of her. ' With Anika's character taking such a dramatic turn, one question remains: is this transformation real, or just another layer in her ever-changing game?

Vahbbiz Dorabjee Reacts to Supreme Court Stray Dog Ruling: 'Caging These Voices Is Not a Solution'

TV actress Vahbbiz Dorabjee has strongly criticized the Supreme Court's order to move stray dogs to shelters, calling it an "absolute shock" and "absolute nonsense." She questions the compassion behind the decision and the suitability of existing shelter homes. TV fame Vahbbiz Dorabjee has reacted to the Supreme Court Stray Dog Ruling. In an exclusive chat with Times of India TV, television actress-model Vahbbiz Dorabjee, best known for roles in Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani, Saraswatichandra, and Bahu Hamari Rajni Kant, shared her reaction to the Supreme Court's newly issued directive on stray dogs. Vahbbiz described the court's order as 'an absolute shock,' adding that the country has more important things to deal with than to leave it all and pass an order on the voiceless — it's nothing but trying to be a bully. She felt strongly that 'caging these voices is not a solution at all.' She stressed that tiny lives don't deserve punishment and instead suggested that adoption campaigns or sterilisation efforts could offer real, humane solutions. 'A punishment like this is not deserved by these babies at all,' she said, her concern clear and heartfelt. Giving more of her view, Vahbbiz called the order 'absolute nonsense,' saying she strongly disagrees with it because she is 'a huge animal lover.' She added, 'Is compassion no longer there in our courts? How could anyone think of such harsh ways to treat innocent souls?' She also questioned the shelter homes named in the directive: 'How many have seen these centres? Do they even exist, and are they good or bad?' Why does this matter now? On August 11, 2025, the Supreme Court directed authorities in Delhi and nearby areas to move all stray dogs to shelters within eight weeks, warning that anyone who tries to stop the process could face legal action. The court said the step was necessary due to rising dog-bite cases and concerns about rabies. However, the decision has faced strong opposition from animal welfare groups, experts, and celebrities, who have called it inhumane and against the Animal Birth Control (ABC) Rules 2023. These rules focus on sterilisation, vaccination, and allowing stray dogs to live safely in their own communities. In Delhi, protests have taken place in several areas, with activists and dog lovers demanding the order be reconsidered. There are also questions about the shelter facilities themselves, with many wondering if they even exist in good enough condition to house so many animals.
