A son who is her world and for whom his mother is his world ...," she added."This emotion was further amplified when Saagar came in as my Samar ....

Updated: Jul 14, 2021 - 1:02 PM IST The daily drama Anupamaa has managed to keep its viewers engaged with its twists and turns in the plot. The show has managed to garner immense popularity in a short span of time and always tops the TRP chart. While currently, we are witnessing Anupamaa played by Rupali Ganguly after getting divorced from Vanraj played by Sudhanshu Pandey has been leading an independent and splendid life.According to reports, there will be a new addition to the cast of the show as the makers have decided to introduce a character who will romance Rupali Ganguly. There were other reports as well which claimed the exit of Sudhanshu Pandey from the show. Reacting to all the reports, the show's producer Rajan Shahi confirmed that there will be an important addition to the star cast but they haven't decided on the character and who will play it. The casting process for the same hasn't begun yet and they will make a formal announcement once they are finalised with the character.Rajan also confirmed that Sudhanshu will not be exiting and nobody will replace him. He also said that Sudhanshu Pandey is an integral part of the show and will continue to be Vanraj despite any new entry into the show.Featuring Rupali Ganguly in the titular role, Anupamaa also stars Madalsa Sharma, Paras Kalnawat, Aashish Mehrotra, Nidhi Shah, Anagha Bhosale, Tassnim Sheikh among others.

Sudhanshu Pandey, who portrays the role of Vanraj Shah in Star Plus's popular daily drama Anupamaa, finally breaks his silence on reports claiming his rift with co-star Rupali Ganguly.There were rumours about them being not on good terms, which has also divided the star cast into two groups on the sets. With Rupali, Alpana Buch, Aashish Mehrotra, and Muskan Bamne being on one side and Sudhanshu, Madalsa Sharma, Anagha Bhosle, and Paras Kalnawat on the other side. The rumours also spread like wildfire when Sudhanshu's latest post of a promo did not have Rupali tagged in it.Reacting to all these, Sudhanshu while talking to a tabloid, rubbished all the rumours and clarified that there is nothing like that. He said that these are the silly things that people create and he does not understand how their minds work. He also questioned about what he'll achieve by untagging someone. He cited that the track has undergone a change and hence, he will promote with Kavya (Madalsa Sharma) more.He further went on to say that he and Rupali are good co-actors and friends too and there is nothing wrong between them. He feels that a difference of opinion between two actors at times is very normal and can happen any day. He said that there are so many times when one can't agree on something and get a little upset but then it is over. He feels it happens not only with actors working on the sets but also between two individuals at home. He concluded and said that rift or cold war are too strong words to use.At last, he also said that such baseless rumours do not carry any importance in his life; it is only normal for people to assume what goes behind the scenes.

Rupali Ganguly has been detected with Covid 19. She connected with me after the tests showed her to be positive. I joked about the bin bulaye mehmaan at her doorstep and she laughed, Wohi to dekhiye na, Subhashji. Mujhe kahan se ho gayamujhe samajh mein nahin aa raha hai (I dont know where I got it from. But it doesnt matter. I will fight this, like Ive fought all my battles in life. Hopefully Ill be back shooting for Anupama sooner than expected.How is she feeling? Well, as of now I feel no symptoms. I hope I dont feel any symptoms ahead also. But the doctors have given me so many medicines. I am not feeling ill with Covid. But I think I am going to fall ill because of those medicines. Mujhe dawaiyan khaane ki aadat nahin hai (I am not used to taking medicines).Rupali has a young son, whose health and safety she is worried about. I got my sons Covid test done this morning. Reports are awaited. I also got my husband and the entire staff in my house tested. Hopefully they will be all clear.Rupali has isolated herself away from her family. I have quarantined myself in our cottage in Araam Nagar. So I am not with my family. I am all alone. I am absolutely away from civilization, with just my dogs for company. My only stress is that my family should not be tested positive. Everything else is fine.In the meanwhile the shooting of Anupama continues without Rupali. Which is a bit like Agra without the Taj Mahal.
