Arjit Taneja, Twinkle Arora, And Riya Sharma In Talks To Play Lead In Jhanak
Last Updated: The current characters played by Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja will be shown dead following the leap. Jhanak, featuring Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja, is all set to undergo a dramatic generation leap. This means the beloved lead actors will bid farewell to the show, leaving fans disappointed. With this change, the makers aim to boost TRP ratings. Ever since the announcement was made, fans have been speculating about the new faces who would be replacing the lead actors. While names like Erica Fernandes and Zohaib Siddiqui were initially in talks, the actors who will be headlining the show have finally been confirmed. Any guesses? The latest developments reveal that the production house has locked in three leads for their serial. Filmibeat, in its report, mentioned that Arjit Taneja, Twinkle Arora, and Riya Sharma have been finalised as the new leads. The current characters played by Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja will be shown dead following the leap. The new trio is expected to commence shooting soon, though an official announcement from the channel and production house is still awaited. Arjit Taneja recently wrapped up shooting for Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gye, while Riya Sharma was last seen in Dhruv Tara. Twinkle Arora, on the other hand, gained recognition for her performance in Udaariyaan, where she was paired with Hitesh Bharadwaj and Vivian Dsena. The decision to introduce a generation leap, reportedly after IPL 2025, stems from an order issued by the programming team of Star Plus to the production house to achieve a minimum TRP of 2. An industry source told Filmibeat that while Jhanak is performing well, the channel is pushing for higher numbers. 'The channel and the production house have made up their mind to introduce a generation leap after IPL 2025. Star Plus has issued a diktat to the production house to increase the ratings or shut shop. Jhanak is doing well in terms of ratings at the 10:30 pm slot; however, the channel is unhappy with the numbers. They want the show to generate at least 2 TVRs in the late-night slot. One has to consider that shows like Jaadu Teri Nazar, Anupama, and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai have also witnessed a massive drop in their viewership. It seems the channel is only focusing on Jhanak, which is a bit unfair," reported the media outlet. Fans now eagerly wait to see how this new generation will carry forward the intriguing narrative of Jhanak. First Published: May 24, 2025, 18:07 IST

Transgender actress Shubhi Sharma reveals shocking casting couch experience: ‘He told me to take off my…'
Transgender actress Shubhi Sharma reveals shocking casting couch experience: 'He told me to take off my…' In the glamorous world of Bollywood, behind the glitz, there is a lot more that meets the eye. Often masked behind the flamboyance are silent voices, uneven opportunities, and even identity that may become a struggle to celebrate. Even though the entertainment industry seems progressive and future-forward, the truth remains far from reality. Despite the industry celebrating diversity and inclusivity, the real struggles of transgenders remains buried. One such actress, Shubhi Sharma, who stands both as a survivor and a trailblazer, reveals the reality of transgender individuals in the entertainment industry. Featured in hit television serials like Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, Dhruv Tara, and Chaand Jalne Laga, Shubhi's journey wasn't about success, but it was more about paving with prejudice, exploitation, and emotional endurance. In a candid interview, Shubhi revealed how deeply rooted stigma affects not just work opportunities but every aspect of her life. 'Who really supports transgender people?' she asked. 'In our society, families often disown people like us. We don't get life partners. Our lives are filled with pain.' Her words pierce through the superficial celebration of inclusivity, bringing focus to a harsh and often hidden truth. Talking about an incident, Shubhi shares that despite her strong industry connection, she was dropped out of the show and it went to male actors. 'I didn't know how to react. I had been told I was perfect for the part, but then it all vanished,' she said. However, one event that took her by shock was when she faced casting couch, which showcased the cruel objectification transgender actors face. An influential figure suggested she would need to 'remove her clothes' for a chance. 'I told him, I'm a transgender woman, not a girl you can exploit,' Shubhi recalled. He coldly responded, 'People like you are in demand these days.' In another incident, a filmmaker offered to help her remain 'relevant' in the competitive world, but again, the help came with inappropriate expectations. The common thread? Her identity was used against her—exoticised when convenient, erased when uncomfortable. Despite these repeated setbacks, Shubhi hasn't given up. 'I'm still struggling for good roles. When we don't have work, we depend on charity. We live on whatever comes our way,' she shared. Her truth echoes the silent pain of many transgender individuals trying to thrive in a world not yet ready to embrace them fully. Shubhi's journey is not just about her—it's about a broken system, and the strength it takes to rise above it. She continues to fight not just for roles, but for respect, space, and dignity. In a world of scripted fiction, her story is painfully real—and that's what makes it so important.
