By Gossips Tv : Star Plus has finally lifted the curtain of the new chapter of Jhanak. The promo introduces a generation leap, with Arjit Taneja as Police Officer Rishi Chatterjee and Riya Sharma stepping into the titular role of Jhanak. This exciting new phase of the show is all set to launch next week, and the buzz has already started building across social media.
The promo opens with Riya Sharma’s striking entry, establishing her as a strong, headstrong young woman with a painful past. She’s seen with her mother — the elder Jhanak, now played by Parvati Sehgal — as she reacts angrily when someone questions her about her father. The emotional depth in Riya’s performance hints at a layered character, one shaped by hardship and resilience. Riya, known for her expressive acting and girl-next-door charm, brings a refreshing blend of vulnerability and fire to the role.
Enter Arjit Taneja as Officer Rishi Chatterjee — a righteous, no-nonsense police officer with a sharp mind and a soft heart. In the promo, a small road accident leads to a fiery yet humorous confrontation between Rishi and Jhanak. He apologizes and offers compensation, but Jhanak refuses to let it slide, sparking the first of many playful clashes between the two.
Viewers are already appreciating the fresh chemistry between Arjit and Riya. While some loyal fans are nostalgic about the exit of Krushal Ahuja and Hiba Nawab as Anirudh and the original Jhanak, many are eager to embrace this new duo and storyline. Comparisons with shows like Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein and Imlie are surfacing, but the unique tone of Jhanak promises to stand apart.
As the promo receives a mix of excitement and scrutiny, one thing is certain — this new journey of Jhanak, filled with nok-jhok, emotions, and unexpected romance, is ready to win hearts all over again.
