COLORS flagship show Balika Vadhu’s search for its new Anandi ends at Toral Rasputra.

Speaking about this new role, Toral said, “It’s an opportunity of a lifetime to play Anandi, a character loved by the whole nation. Anandi is larger than life; you’ve seen many characters portray different stages of her life. I am looking forward to playing the character of mature Anandi. It is a huge responsibility, and I am nervous as well as excited about it. I hope the audience connect with me and extends the same warmth and love that Anandi has received so far."
She further added, “I have always followed Balika Vadhu and this is one I consider as a dream role. I hope I am able to do justice and live up to the audience’s expectations of seeing their Anandi in me"
