Sagar Parekh's journey in Anupamaa
Sagar Parekh was roped in as Samar after actor Paras Kalnawat who played the character, wanted to exit the show. Kalnawat was hugely appreciated for the role and Parekh had big shoes to fill. In one of the tracks of the show, Samar is shown closer to his wife Dimpy and is manipulated by her. During that phase, Samar disrespected Anupamaa, which was quite unlikely for his character. For the track, Parekh received hate comments for the change in the character graph.
However, the actor did manage to win the hearts of the audiences and gained love for his performance in the show. Sagar also has projects like Crime Patrol and Babbar Ka Tabbar in his kitty.
The current track of Anupamaa revolves around Anupamaa giving it back to Aadhya. She tells her that she is not interested in her and Anuj.
