She is forced to pause and take a deep breath and reevaluate what true happiness means and how easy it is to rest in the strength of another for once.

However, their love story isn’t smooth sailing as one would expect because an event from the past threatens to make their love short-lived.

Sometimes later in Iron lady, Indira is diagnosed with a very serious brain tumor that could not be cured. This news then prompts her to make haste in seeing her family settled as well as witness the wedding of her sister Mandira. Eventually the brain tumor puts her in coma and supposedly kills her.

After that, an 8 years leap occurs and a look alike of Indira sharma surfaces as Zara Malik Khan, a police officer living in Mumbai. Suffice to state here that these two characters in Iron lady are different but acted by the same actor – Rati Pandey. This was a ploy by the producers of the show to heighten viewers suspense and commitment to the show as well improve ratings.

With the introduction of Zara, A whole new course of conflicts and events begin as the similarities become confusing for Rishi, Indu and the Sharma family. Especially as Indira who had been presumed dead resurfaces… You can find out more about the leap here—->

 

Please Note:Β Zara Malik Khan is not Indira sharma. Zara is only a police officer who had been living her life in Mumbai but crosses path with the Sharmas when she comes for a mission in Chandi Chowk.Β Β She laters falls in love with Rishi and turns evil in a means to get rid of her competition, Indira sharma.

While Indira sharma is still the same Hitler Didi of Chandi Chowk we all knew and loved right from the beginning of the show. By a twist she becomes mentally unstable and goes missing for years, but soon she returns back to her family and regains her sanity.

She then has to deal with her lookalike Zara Malik Khan, who is trying to steal her identity, husband, daughter and family from her. It then becomes a battle of wit between the two to prove who the ultimate Iron lady is. So keep watching the show for all outcome.
