DV's character goes through a remarkable journey and takes different avatars during the short life of this show. When we first met DV, he was just another good looking guy. The dimensions of the character changed drastically when we got to see the brains behind that handsome face. His lawyergiri, his quick wit, street smartness and amazing dialogues added to his allure.
DV's adorable banter with Aaji and Nani, his dude like approach with Aadu and his your-sweet-but-not-my-type' relation with Dils made him so endearing. When it came to his interaction with Saachi, he was floored from the very start by this understated woman who was so focused on her own little world. The foundation of any fruitful relation is respect and that is what DV felt for Saachi. The more he saw her the more he liked her and the more feelings he had for her. In his eyes Saachi was becoming the perfect woman and he was infatuated with her. The physical attraction he felt towards her was undeniable. He slowly realized that Saachi is all that he desires in a woman. All he wants to do now is ease his Saachiji's troubles.
Once he realizes that he is in love, there is no holding back. He so firmly believes in his love that he is convinced that Saachi feels the same for him, but just doesn't realize it. It is with the confession of his love that we see DV in his most glorious phase. He epitomizes charm and is all out to woo his lady love by teasing her, challenging her or plain simple confessing his love for her. His sincerity and deep love makes Saachi also become conscious of her feelings for him. DV convinces Saachi that the difference in their age has no part to play in their journey together.
DV is successful in convincing Saachi of their love, but still can't get her to trust him completely. He knows that he has not been very forthcoming with his background and family and that is why Saachi is in doubt. Little did he know that it was going to come back to harm him in the near future. Convinced that Saachi is his, he starts introducing her to his world, a world so different from hers, full of riches and manipulation.
When you love something very dearly, the fear of losing it consumes you and that's what started eating at DV when he procrastinated telling Saachi about his family and business background. He started fearing that he may lose his all, his Saachi. His family that he was so sure will accept his choice with open arms turns out to be his most unexpected nightmare. Loving on the outside and conniving on the inside, his family, begins to manipulate him as they clearly see Saachi as a misfit match for their youthful son.
Faced with deceit from his love, DV starts heading towards self destruction. Resorting to liquor, he begins to lose all sense of self, and has no desire to live without his Saachi. After great anguish, he realizes that his heart cannot be wrong. His Saachi cannot deceive him. Saachi is all that mattered and the world around him can go to hell.
Once again, we are treated to what DV does best, woo Saachi! This time around for marriage, and he turns up the heat a notch higher. A union made in heaven, he and Saachi, after much ado, begin a life together completely immersed in each other.
The pressure of choosing a partner older than himself begins to creep into his fairytale love story. However, Saachi and DV prove that when love is strong, all hurdles can be overcome. Culmination of their love is finally symbolized with the birth of their twin children. This proves that in matters of love, nothing else matters, least of all AGE!
It is said that "As an actor, the biggest compliment you can get, is for someone to believe that you're the character", and this is a compliment that Ruslaan Mumtaz deserves for being DV. Ruslaan came to the television industry as a breadth of fresh air. When Jee Le Zara began airing, he was watched with interest because it is rare to see a lead actor from the Hindi film industry toggle between TV & Films so early in his career. Not just a handsome face with a body to die for, Ruslaan proved that he is also an incredibly gifted actor who can get under the skin of his character. The audience watched him with bated breath and were mesmerized with his ability to emote. He grew as a performer with each passing episode of JLZ. The audience truly believed Ruslaan was DV.
Paired with a gorgeous and accomplished actress like Sangita Ghosh, Ruslaan held his own and together they created the magic of SARUV. Ruslaan has done full justice to all the shades of DV's character from the happy-go-lucky guy, the street smart lawyer, the lover boy, the jilted lover, the angry young man and the committed husband. His voice modulation and dialogue delivery brought variety and versatility to his role. All in all, Rulaaan is a treat to watch and the complete package of a hero and a total entertainer.
Saachi and DV's relationship has always taken and is taking a roller coaster ride with steep dips and lofty highs !
There's one character in JLZ, who's never let me down and that's Dilshaad, lovingly referred to as Dils. When JLZ began Dils came across as vivacious, flirty and fun. I still remember her ad for a paying guest who had to be: male, young, below 30, handsome and dashing.' From that moment I was drawn to this character. To me, she seemed fearless. A character who wasn't afraid to be herself and spoke her mind and for the kind of soft-spoken and compromising person Saachi was, Dils was the perfect influence. At the beginning her equation with DV seemed to be this unrequited infatuation, and I could watch those episodes between DV and Dils again and again- they just made me laugh so much. Dils being her flirty self and DV trying to run away from her, just remembering those moments now is bringing a smile to my face. As DV became a frequent visitor to Prabhu Nivas, his equation with Saachi grew. Their initial disagreements, due to Saachi's first impression of DV being dishonest, and hence looking at him like a child often left DV confused and Dils would explain Saachi's behaviour. Oh...she understood Saachi so well and this understanding has been there till the end.
The turning point in the DV and Dils relationship was when Addu had the accident while paragliding and SaRuv had that shouting match, where sour words were exchanged. Dils, I felt immediately stepped up, trying to be the voice of reason for DV as he instinctively decided to leave Panchgani. Before this episode the grown-up side of Dils hadn't really come out, but from here on, we realised the mature, clear-thinking and assertive side of her. The way in which she convinced DV to come to the Ganesh Puja in Prabhu Nivas, and then when he had been mistreated she stood up for him. The firm manner in which she spoke to Saachi about the way DV had been treated, didn't just show her supporting DV but also being there for Saachi by highlighting her best friend's mistake. If she wouldn't have, who else would? This was the first time Dils aided SaRuv with their relationship, even though it was just one of being neighbours, and from that day on, she never stopped. She was the first person to notice DV's love for Saachi, and encouraged him as she realised his love was true. She also planted the seed of thought into Saachi of having fallen in love with DV after the episode where Saachi nurses him back to good health. When the Prabhu family found out about SaRuv, she was the only person who stood by her friends and despite the respect she had for Aaji and Naani, Dils strongly opposed them in order to make them and Ulka Kaku see sense in the SaRuv relationship. When the rest of the world walked out, Dils like a true friend walked in.
Later on, she supported Saachi after she cut off all ties with DV for Neena because Dils realised the pain Saachi would have been going through. Dils was there for her bestfriend like a rock. She was the shoulder for Saachi to cry on. I still remember that moment when Saachi's factory had been shutdown and she called Dils so helplessly while trying to hold herself together and Dils immediately went to her friend's rescue and gave her courage. She fought every hurdle in the strictly guarded Goel Mansion to drum sense into DV about why Saachi left him, without telling him the actual reason because she was bound by the promise Saachi took from her. Dils has been the saviour of the SaRuv relationship. She believed in their love, when Saachi and DV had both lost faith. Even after marriage, she offered clearly thought-out sensible advice. Dils is an exceptionally well-rounded human being- a lot of fun but very correct.
It is said that bestfriends aren't just the people who are always there for you, but the people who understand you a little better than you understand yourself' and Dils epitomises this. Whenever she appeared on my TV screen, I would find myself beaming. She is the perfect example of a bestfriend. The character of Dils may have ended, but we can take a lot away from her and in turn keep the character of Dils' with us always. To me, she said support your friends through everything. She said be honest. She said speak your mind. She said all will be well and she said enjoy life. Her character truly says: Jee Le Zara.

Saachi -
We two women who love the same person fiercely (albeit differently), and now it has led to weird, unnecessary competition. Dhruv and Saachi younger generation are figuring out how to do things our own way, and the comments from mother-in-law on cannot conceive baby seem judgmental, even if they come from a good place. She an older generation does feel her experience and knowledge isn't taken seriously when Dhruv and Saachi want to do things their own way or act against her advice.
Mother-in-law isn't so keen on me now. She can't let go of her expectations about how things should be and work with the way things are. It is nonnegotiable circumstances. We enjoyed a harmonious relationship. It has caused long-term unhappiness and stress, and affected the quality of our marriage. Saachi is now on the "emotionally endangered species" list. Dhurv says don't despair ... We both have develop an action plan. Agree to a concrete action plan and have started enacting it. We both feel better. Good luck!

All the best 2 Ruslaan, Sangeetha and all d cast n crew of JLZ for future projects.. 👍🏼
A big THANK YOU to team JLZ for giving us this wonderful show. A special thanks to Ruslaan and Sangita for making DV & Saachi so real. JLZ would never have been complete without characters like Dils, Naani, Aaji, Aadu, Prachi, Sunil, Ulka, Deepali, Pradeep, Mugdha, Yadavji, Neena, Yash, Anway, Suparna, Ankita, Esha, etc and its simplistic setup in Panchgani.
JLZ has had a mesmerizing effect on me right from the start. I would have never watched Indian TV dramas had it not been for JLZ. Thank you SonyTV for airing a show as unique as JLZ, but it's unfortunate that they didn't have the conviction to continue the show for longer.
Wishing all the members of Team JLZ the very best for their future endeavors. I have become a big fan of Ruslaan and Sangita and hope to see them a lot of work.
Thank you Ruslaan, sangita and the entire team of JLZ. Good luck for all your future endeavours
Well Jee Le Zara will always remain special to me because of Ruslaan. 😳 You all know na only RM matters n rest I really dint care 😆. He is my Jaan; Jee Le Zara's shaan...my Ruslaan. 😳 Wen the promos went on air; I thot this pair is a mismatch. But wen I started watching it; I completely hooked on to the show. & The only reason ws DV...I was so mesmerized by his charm that I couldn't stop myself fr watching this show. East or west; Ruslaan is the best. 😉
I know thoda zyada ho gaya 😆 Ruslaan & Sangita did a great job as DV-Sanchi...the best onscreen couple. Best of luck for their new projects. I'm sure RM will be back with a bang.
A delightful, committed and talented lady and actress, Sangeeta Ghosh. Ruslaan Mumtaz who has delighted audiences with his power packed performance. He just has that cute smile and layed back attitude that I love. A handsome leading man, what more can I say.
Sangeeta and Ruslaan something beyond radiance. These stars line up just right. Two talents found each other, merge and create something unique. A configuration of harmony and romance lights up the Jee Le Zara. At first glance, Saachi and Dhruv seem to radiate a positive energy. The origins of all their talent and energy blossomed in each of their scenes building a depth of experience uniquely suited to their romantic essence.
