The emotional farewell of actor Sagar Parekh from the hit television series ‘Anupamaa’ has left fans in tears. In recent episodes, viewers witnessed the tragic demise of Samar, played by Sagar Parekh, who sacrificed himself to save Anuj (Gaurav Khanna) during a party dispute.
This heart-wrenching twist has sparked a wave of emotions among fans, many of whom have criticized the show’s creators for this unexpected turn. Samar’s character had always been a pillar of strength for Anupamaa (Rupali Ganguly) and the audience cherished their close bond, making his loss even more devastating.
Rupali Ganguly, who portrays Anupamaa, shared a touching Instagram post ahead of Sagar’s exit, reminiscing about their beautiful on-screen mother-son relationship and praising Sagar’s exceptional performance as Samar. She wrote –
‘Anupamaa and her Bakuda Samar โฆ..
one of the most beautiful mother son bond created on televisionโฆ.
the very first relationship I connected to coz that was the very first promo I shot โฆ
Have loved this extremely detailed emotion of a mother with her favourite child .. a child who understands her , encourages her , gives her strength, holds her hand , treats her like a queen โฆ. A son who is her world and for whom his mother is his world โฆ
This emotion was further amplified when Saagar came in as my Samar โฆ.
Stepping into a well established character is no easy task โฆ but the scenes we have done in the last few days have delightfully surprised me with the range and the emotions you have displayed as Samarโฆ. An extremely intricate yet balanced performance in the kitchen scene totally floored me ๐๐ป
It is heartbreaking and emotionally draining and exhausting as Anupamaa bids farewell to her precious child โฆ but my genuine love for you as a person has made it so much more believable for me to do โฆ โค๏ธ
Perhaps itโs the final farewell of Anupama to Samar ( or maybe not ) but this bond that we have been blessed with shall forever remain โฆthank you for being the beautiful soul that you are Sagarโฆ Thank you for being Samar to my Anupamaaโฆ Keep shinning always โค๏ธ Thank you @rajan.shahi.543 for this unparalleled bond of Anupamaa and her Bakudaa โฆ forever grateful ๐๐ป Please do watch Anupamaa @starplus 10pm everyday. All of us have put our hearts out there for you to see’
Sagar Parekh responded with heartfelt gratitude, thanking the entire ‘Anupamaa’ team and expressing his love for the fans who embraced him with open arms. He commented –
‘My heart is filled โฆI remember my first day on the set โฆ where you welcomed me with a tight warm hug .. saying โwelcome to Anupamaa child.!โ and just after my first shot โฆ which was a whole dance sequence i did notice you clapping and cheering for me..!
