New Delhi, July 5 (UNI) Color's show 'Roop-Mard Ka Naya Swaroop' has struck a chord with the viewers with the story of an eight-year-old boy Roop who questions the patriarchal beliefs in the society.

While his father Shamsher Singh is trying to make the young Roop his macho and chauvinist reflection, Roop on the other hand, is benevolent and doesn’t not think in the same way.

Following this soul stirring journey of Roop, the show will witness a 12-year leap highlighting a new phase in Roop’s life and how he will change the perception of the defined role of man in the society.

Taking the mantle forward will be Shashank Vyas who is known for his famous character 'Jagya'-- from Balika Vadhu as the grown up Roop. Joining him will be the beautiful Donal Bhist as Roop’s love interest Ishika.

Commenting about his character and the show Shashank Vyas said, "I always choose to play a role that is distinctive and one that has an impact. The shows bold and hard-hitting concept is what got me to take it up. Gender stereotypes need to be spoken about in order to bring a change and I'm honored that COLORS and Rashmi Sharma Telefilms has given me this opportunity.”



Speaking about her role, Donal Bisht said, "I am really excited to work in a show like Roop- Mard Ka Naya Swaroop that brings out the conversation on an impending issue like gender stereotype. I strongly believe that be it a woman or man, everyone has a right to choose their own path without being judged. I am super excited for this new opportunity and I can't wait to begin."



With the leap of 12 years, the storyline will soon witness new twists and surprises keeping the audience glued to their television screens.
