Smriti Irani will be seen once again in the role of Tulsi Virani for ‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2’. The show is going to air on Star Plus from July 28.
On Monday, the first look of Smriti Irani as Tulsi Virani from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 was officially shared by the makers. Adding to the excitement, the first promo of the show will also be released tonight at 10:30 pm. With the buzz at its peak, Smriti has now opened up about returning to Ekta Kapoor’s show after a quarter of a century. In an official statement, the actress said that she is returning not just as an actor, but as someone who believes in the power of storytelling. ‘I believe in the power of storytelling to bring about change’
Speaking about her comeback, Smriti, who plays Tulsi Virani in the show, said, “Some journeys come full circle – not for nostalgia, but for purpose. Returning to Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi is not just returning to a role, but to a story that redefined Indian television and reshaped my own life. It gave me more than commercial success – it gave me an opportunity to connect with millions of households, a place in the emotional fabric of a generation.” The statement further read, “Over 25 years, I have worked across two powerful platforms – media and public policy – each with its own impact, each demanding a different kind of commitment. Today I stand at a crossroads where experience meets emotion and creativity meets conviction. I am returning not just as an actor, but as someone who believes in the power of storytelling to bring about change, preserve culture and create empathy. By contributing to this next chapter, I hope to honour the legacy of Kyunki – and help shape a future where India’s creative industries are not just celebrated, but truly empowered.” Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 is set to air on Star Plus from July 28. Apart from Smriti Irani, the show will also feature Amar Upadhyay, Hiten Tejwani and Gauri Pradhan.
