Exclusive- Sneha Bhawsar enters Jhanak as Ankita; says 'This character is very different from anything I've done before'
TV show Jhanak recently took a generational leap, with the leap, the whole cast was revamped and the show got new leads such as Riya Sharma, Arjit Taneja and Twinkle Arora. Now, in an exclusive update, TOI TV learnt that even Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin actress Sneha Bhawsar will be seen in the show as an interesting character. Here's what she shared: Tell us about your character in Jhanak I am playing the role of Ankita in Jhanak. She is paired with Yash, who is Ishani and Shashwat's son. Ankita is in her mid-20s, a true Gen Z personality—entitled, manipulative, possessive, and power-hungry. This character is very different from anything I've done before. Ankita is insecure, and she masks it with aggression and a polished sense of control. She stands as an antagonist to Ishani, but not in a loud or dramatic way—her emotional cruelty comes wrapped in sophistication. She doesn't evolve, but remains a strong, static presence—someone who reflects modern emotional manipulation masked as class and confidence. How has it been returning to yet another show that holds a legacy? Honestly, it's such a blessing to be part of another StarPlus show. The love and support from my family, friends, and fans have always meant the world to me—and they've been eagerly waiting to see me back on screen. Being part of a show with such a strong legacy feels like coming home. I'm truly grateful and very excited for this new chapter. After Ghum, Jhanak is another big banner show, what made you agree to it? The name itself says it all—Jhanak is a big-banner show, just like Ghum was. When you're offered something so powerful and promising, you don't need to think twice. I felt an instant connection and knew I had to be a part of it. How has it been shooting with the fresh cast? It's been such a lovely experience! We're all getting to know each other little by little, and there's this beautiful energy on set. Everyone's warm and welcoming, It's a joy to go to work every day.
