In a significant development, the enduring television saga Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is gearing up for a transformative time leap, ushering in a fresh narrative and a new cast.

Reflecting on her inclination towards television roles, Anita Raj, in a previous conversation, expressed her enjoyment of taking on robust characters. Whether it’s a negative role with nuanced shades or a positive character, she remains open to compelling opportunities across various mediums. Despite being busy with Choti Sarrdaarni in recent years, Anita is eager to explore diverse projects, be it in films, television, or alternative platforms.
Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, a beloved TV show entertaining audiences since January 2009, has undergone several transformations with time leaps influencing the cast. Currently featuring Pranali Rathod and Harshad Chopda as the lead couple, the impending time leap is anticipated to unfold in either late November or early December, promising a fresh chapter in the series.
