Jhanak: Aniruddh breaks silence; chooses Jhanak over Arshi
The latest episode of Jhanak presented an emotionally intense storyline that was packed with confrontations, heartbreak, and a life-changing choice from Aniruddh that rocked the entire household. Broken Bonds and Harsh Decisions Aniruddh went back home to an angry Arshi, asking him why he was being quiet. But he bluntly informed her that she didn't matter to him anymore. When Arshi announced she couldn't live like this any longer, Aniruddh assented without any hesitation. Choton later reported to Aniruddh about the mayhem created by Arshi—how she abused Anjana and Bablu, and even confined Moon to a room, prompting Bablu to think of quitting the house in shame. Angered by Arshi's actions, Aniruddh firmly demanded an apology. Arshi, refusing to acknowledge her mistake, questioned what she had done wrong. Aniruddh, frustrated, insisted she apologize. Bablu gently told Aniruddh that they didn't need an apology, while Anjana sadly stated they should leave the house. But Aniruddh stopped them, saying they deserved to stay more than Arshi, who clearly lacked any understanding of family values. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Tensions rose even higher when Arshi accused Aniruddh of being on the side of Jhanak. Without any hesitation, Aniruddh shocked everyone by stating that he needed a divorce. He openly admitted that he was planning to wed Jhanak, clarifying that she was not married and deserved his commitment. Arshi was heartbroken and asked if their lives were nothing but a game to him, but Aniruddh never showed any sign of change and stated that he would take Jhanak back home after the divorce. Elsewhere, another storm brewed as Abhijeet discussed filing a case against Jeet. Ishani bravely offered to handle the legal battle herself. Despite Ambika's concerns about the toll it could take, Ishani confidently insisted on managing it alone. At the same time, there was a gentle moment between Jhanak and Parashar. She thanked him for his good nature, saying he was a man with a good heart. Parashar, his eyes smiling, told her to go back to the city and asked if Aniruddh had spoken to her. She shook her head, quietly. Parashar then gently declared his desire to see her wedded to Aniruddh. Jhanak was touched and amazed and asked if he really meant it — and Parashar promised that he did.

Jhanak promo: Riya Sharma impresses fans with her new look; Arjit Taneja enters the show as a cop
Jhanak has ventured into a new story track with a 20-year leap, giving way to a new storyline and new lead actors. Television popular stars Riya Sharma and Arjit Taneja are replacing former leads Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja as the new lead protagonists. While the details of the post-leap storyline remain under wraps, a newly released promo gives a glimpse into what's to come. Riya Sharma now plays the titular role of Jhanak, while Arjit Taneja portrays a police officer. The promo shows a brief but telling encounter: Jhanak is walking with her bicycle when it is accidentally pushed by a cop's motorcycle. He apologizes, but she refuses to accept it. When he offers her compensation to apologize, she visibly bristles and states that she will report to the police station to complain — against the officer himself. The exchange suggests a forceful Jhanak and primes the audience for a hot-headed chemistry between the new leads. Prior to the leap, Jhanak was played by Hiba Nawab and Anirudh by Krushal Ahuja. Both the actors have since left the show. It is said that Hiba decided to leave because of the age leap her character needed, not feeling that it was the right time for her in her career. Surprisingly, the jump was already scheduled months prior but was delayed and ultimately scrapped because of scheduling issues. But with ratings remaining essentially level, the production staff opted to finally proceed with the makeover. With Arjit Taneja and Jhanak Sharma at the center, the show is looking forward to reviving its storyline while keeping its emotional essence intact. Whether this jump will be complete and bring people back is yet to be seen — but one thing is sure: Jhanak is stepping into a new phase altogether.
