"We want Alamzeb to die in the first scene of the first episode," one of the trolls wrote. "Petition to get Sharmin removed! How does one start petitions?" said another one. "Just remove Alam's character or replace Sharmin," advised another user. "Just replace Sharmin Sehgal by Mrunal Thakur or other good royal looking actress," another one proclaimed.

Some others were upset about Bibbojaan and Tajdar not being in the second season

Both the characters died in the season 1. Fans are upset about not seeing them in second season. "Heeramandi without Tajdar and Bibojaan," a user wrote with crying emojis. "Season 2 without Tajdar and bibbojaan and Jason shah," added another one with sad face emoji.

While speaking to India Today, the filmmaker revealed Sharmin's innocence is what makes her the perfect choice. "She has a face which is exactly what Alamzeb should be, somebody who doesn¡¯t want to be a tawaif, she doesn¡¯t talk like a tawaif, she doesn¡¯t walk like a tawaif. Her face had innocence, whereas all the others had lived life, they had survived manipulation and mental games. You needed somebody with a fresh, innocent quality to her¡­ I felt that Sharmin was the right choice for Alam not because she¡¯s my niece."

The actress recently revealed to News 18, "I had given my all to Alamzeb¡¯s character. We tend to fixate on the negatives but there are so many positives that have also come along, which we don¡¯t talk about. It¡¯s perhaps not interesting enough to talk about positives and we tend to look over them to some degree. There was a point when I was not looking at many things [reviews] but then slowly, I realised that I was also missing out on a lot of love that I was getting. I¡¯ve now started paying attention to that. Over the last few days, I decided to look through it all."
