Gullak season 5: Anant V Joshi replaces Vaibhav Raj Gupta

Anant V Joshi steps into the role of Annu Mishra in Gullak season 5, replacing Vaibhav Raj Gupta. The family drama returns on Sony LIV.

"Gullak has always felt very close to my heart because the Mishras remind me so much of our own families - Anant V Joshi"

Mumbai, May 8

The fifth season of family drama 'Gullak' has been officially announced, with a major change in the lead cast.

Actor Anant V Joshi has stepped into the role of Anand (Annu) Mishra in Gullak 5, replacing Vaibhav Raj Gupta.

On joining the show, Anant in a press note said, "Gullak has always felt very close to my heart because the Mishras remind me so much of our own families, their warmth, little moments, conversations, and the simplicity with which they touch people's lives. I've been a fan of this world for a long time, so becoming a part of it now feels truly special. Stepping into Annu Bhaiya's journey has been an exciting experience for me, especially because this season explores a more mature and evolving side of his life."

He added, "What made it even more memorable was the love and warmth I received from the entire cast and team from day one. I'm genuinely grateful to be a part of the Gullak family and very excited for audiences to experience this new season with us."

Produced by The Viral Fever, the new season brings back the beloved ensemble featuring Jameel Khan, Geetanjali Kulkarni, Harsh Mayar and Sunita Rajwar, with Anant Joshi stepping into the role of Annu this season.

The show will soon be out on Sony LIV.

Yaar, Gullak is like that comfort show you put on when you're feeling low or just want to feel the warmth of a desi family. Anant V Joshi is a fantastic actor (remember him from 'Panchayat'?), so I'm actually excited. Plus, Annu ka character is growing up, so a more mature face makes sense. Bas, please don't ruin the vibe!

Change is the only constant, but this one stings a little. Vaibhav had that perfect 'bhaiyya' energy. Still, Anant is a solid choice. The writing is the real star of Gullak anyway. Jameel Khan and Geetanjali Kulkarni are absolute legends. If the story stays true to its roots, the new Annu will settle in just fine. 🏡

Finally! Was wondering when Season 5 would drop. Feels like ages since the last one. I'm sad to see Vaibhav go, but Anant is a fantastic actor. He has that same 'middle-class boy next door' vibe. Also, shoutout to Sunita Rajwar as the nosy neighbor - she's a riot! Can't wait for the family dinners and the classic 'papa vs bhaiyya' arguments. 🍛

I have mixed feelings. Recasting is always risky for a show that's so beloved for its cast chemistry. Vaibhav's Annu was our childhood innocence. But if the show is exploring a 'mature Annu', maybe a new actor helps the transition. Let's hope Anant does justice. TVF, please don't let us down! 🤞
