The popular TV serial Anupamaa has taken a major leap, and with it, viewers are witnessing significant changes in both the storyline and the star cast. This generation leap of 15 years has introduced new characters while also saying goodbye to some old faces. While Rupali Ganguly continues to portray Anupamaa, the show has now brought in fresh talent to portray the grown-up children and other key roles. Here’s what has changed and who the new actors are.
