Anupamaa is one of those shows that makes it to the top 5 in every week's TRP chart. This ultimately proves how popular the show is, and undeniably, it keeps the audience glued to the screens. Starring Rupali Ganguly as the leading lady, Anupamaa is a women-centric show that revolves around their independence, inner strength, and family values. 

As the titular character, the actress does complete justice to her role. It is not only about her acting chops but also her expressions and dialogue delivery that Rupali has now become a household name. Many women find themselves connected to and related to her. It is one of the major reasons why the show has crafted a special place among the audience. Anupamaa also stars Sudhanshu Pandey, Gaurav Khanna, and Madalsa Sharma in pivotal roles. 

Post leap, the makers introduced a few new faces, thereby adding more dramatic twists and turns to the show. So, let us have a quick look at the actors who joined Anupamaa after the show took a leap of five years.
