Star Plus hit show Jhanak is gearing up for a major turning point with its upcoming generation leap. The recently released promo featuring Arjit Taneja as Rishi and Riya Sharma as the new Jhanak has already created a buzz among fans. Ashlesha savant will step in the show as Arshi. However, the casting shuffle continues to be the center of attention.
One of the biggest updates is the introduction of Anupamaa actress Ashlesha Savant in the role of elder Arshi. She replaces Chandni Sharma, bringing an entirely new shade to the character. Unlike the dignified and mature elder Jhanak, played by Parvati Sehgal (who is replacing Hiba Nawab), Ashlesha’s Arshi will have negative traits.
Ashlesha as Elder Arshi holds a significant place in the plot. She is married to Anirudh and is the mother of Moon, portrayed by Twinkle Arora. Her character is complex and will likely be an antagonist, creating conflicts in contrast to the emotionally grounded elder Jhanak. This shift in dynamics creates intense interpersonal struggles and keeps viewers engaged.
Hiba Nawab and Krushal Ahuja will conclude their storyline this weekend. The new generation storyline will commence next week, introducing a fresh perspective. New faces and evolving relationships bring emotionally charged twists to the show.
Adding to the excitement, Jhanak confirms Ashlesha as Arshi and Sumeet Sachdev as Anirudh post-leap. He brings fresh energy to the character and deepens the narrative. His portrayal will shape key events in the unfolding drama.
As Jhanak steps into a new era, viewers can expect a compelling blend of romance, rivalry, and family drama. With layered characters and unexpected plot developments, the upcoming phase promises to be an exhilarating ride.
