Gaurav Khanna, who plays Anuj, and Rupali Ganguly, who portrays the titular character Anupamaa, have been pivotal to the success of the show. Recently, rumours circulated that the lead actors might exit due to an upcoming storyline leap involving Aurra Bhatnagar, who plays Aadhya, the daughter of Anupamaa and Anuj.
Speculation suggested that the show might introduce a new actor to play an older version of Aadhya, and that Shivam Khajuria from 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' could join 'Anupamaa' as Aadhya’s love interest after the leap.
