Advocate Anjali Awasthi, one of Star Plus’s most noticeable yet struggling shows, is all set to take a bold leap into the future. With a generational shift and fresh faces, the makers are betting big on revamping the storyline to pull in higher TRPs. But will this leap be enough to revive the show’s declining popularity?
The show has been under scrutiny for its slipping ratings despite a strong concept centered around law and justice. With the exit of lead actor Ankit Raizada, who played the pivotal role of Aman, the emotional depth of the current storyline is set to culminate in a tragic blast sequence. This moment will serve as the catalyst for the upcoming leap.
Post-leap, the story will pivot around Aarti, Anjali and Aman’s daughter, played by Shritama Mitra in a double role. Aarti’s journey will be driven by a quest for justice. Determined to uncover the truth behind the fatal blast that killed her father and shattered her family, Aarti will step into the courtroom much like her mother. Was the blast a mere accident or a carefully planned conspiracy? That’s the mystery she sets out to solve.
Joining the new cast is actor Puneet Chouksey, who will step in as the new male lead opposite Shritama. His presence is expected to bring a fresh energy to the show, possibly paired with a new romantic arc.
The upcoming track promises intense courtroom battles, a revenge-driven plot, and a modern, ambitious heroine at its core. However, the big question remains—will Advocate Anjali Awasthi succeed in attracting viewers without relying on the typical saas-bahu drama or love triangles?
While the courtroom genre has always had a niche audience, the revamped plot gives the show a chance to break away from daily soap clichés and explore bold, issue-based storytelling. If executed well, the leap could breathe new life into the show.
But the competition is stiff, and audience patience is short. Advocate Anjali Awasthi needs to deliver gripping storytelling, emotional depth, and fresh chemistry to make its mark in the new phase.
Only time—and TRP charts—will tell if this leap turns into a lifeline for the show. For now, all eyes are on Aarti and her journey from grief to justice.
