Adrija Roy and Sumbul Touqeer's bond

Technically, Sumbul played the first Imlie in the show while Adrija played the last. Sumbul visited the sets of Imlie and clicked pictures with both Sai Ketan Rao and Adrija Roy. The fans felt nostalgic seeing Sumbul on the sets of Imlie after she exited the show owing to the leap.

Adrija Roy has always been in awe of Sumbul and had exclusively told Pinkvilla in an interview that she saw Sumbul's version of Imlie to prepare for her character in the show.

She said, "I really liked her performance in the show and I watch her perform as my reference point. It has been really helping me perform my scenes. Fans do point out the connection between Sumbul and me in terms of costumes and looks, I'm glad they notice small details."

Sai Ketan Rao on the show's closure

Sai Ketan Rao, the male lead of Imlie also wrote a long post on the show's closure and expressed gratitude to the makers of the show for allowing him to play not one but two powerful roles as Agastya Choudhary and Surya Pratap Reddy.

He wrote, "As I turn the page to embark on new adventures, I carry with me the lessons learned, the experiences gained, and the unwavering passion that fuels my craft. Until our paths cross again in the boundless realm of storytelling."

Imlie started off with Sumbul Touqeer, Gashmeer Mahajani, and Mayuri Deshmukh playing the lead roles in the show. As Mahajani quit the show, the makers revamped the story and introduced Fahmaan Khan as the new male lead opposite Touqeer. Audiences instantly fell in love with Imlie and Aryan's love story.

After Generation Leap, Megha Chakraborty, Karan Vohra, and Seerat Kapoor were roped in to take over the show. Followed by yet another generation leap, Sai Ketan Rao and Adrija Roy played the new faces of the show.
