You know for that matter Naira (from Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai), if we take a break of ten years and if we do the same thing again, I don’t think audience ko disconnect (hoga). “I don’t think so, because that character was loved so much, and I think that love and everything is still there. Since there was more than a decade long gap between the first and second season of Balika Vadhu, does she think that the audience had disconnected from the character of Anandi. Today’s generation will be able to connect with Anandi.” The situations that will be created (on the show) will be very relatable. So it’s nice, the storyline is very interesting and also relatable. People will see a different concept of Balika Vadhu now. Both the mediums have their own audiences, so we are happy that it’s on OTT now, and we will get a new audience. She further adds, “Yeah, it didn’t do very well on TV, but it's working well on OTT platform. So that has continued,” says the actress. The reason it ended on TV is because they wanted to continue the journey further on OTT. “I think it has not ended, it is coming on OTT.

In an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla, it’s lead actress Shivangi Joshi opened up on the sudden end of the TV version of the show. However, they have returned with a spin off titled Balika Vadhu - Anandi Ka Naya Safar, which airs on Voot. Balika Vadhu 2, which premiered in 2021 ended its TV journey last week, and the news had shocked many fans of the show.
