25 years down, the much-loved Indian TV show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi is coming back in a highly awaited avtaar and viewers cannot wait to have Smriti Irani back as the iconic Tulsi Virani. The promo of the sequel featuring both Smriti and Amar Upadhyay, who is back as Mihir, has already started bringing back memories of the fans who have been following the show for ages.

In a powerful moment, Smriti’s Tulsi announces the return of Kyunki, sending fans into a wave of excitement. The caption reads, “25 saal ke baad, Tulsi Virani laut rahi hai, ek nayi kahaani ke saath!”
