Smriti Irani’s TV Comeback? Buzz Grows Around Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Revival
Speculation is rife that Smriti Irani, the former Union Minister and BJP leader, may return to television, reprising her iconic role as Tulsi Virani in a revival of the legendary soap Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. Reports surfaced on April 3, suggesting producer Ektaa Kapoor is planning a limited series featuring Irani alongside Amar Upadhyay as Mihir, the original lead pair from the show that aired from 2000 to 2008. The news has sent fans into a nostalgic frenzy, given the serial’s unmatched legacy in Indian TV history.
Irani, who shot to fame with Kyunki… before pivoting to a high-profile political career, is reportedly prepping to slip back into Tulsi’s shoes, with whispers of the iconic theme song being recreated at its original location.
The announcement is slated for June 2025, per industry buzz. However, Irani has a history of debunking TV return rumors—last October, she dismissed claims of joining Anupamaa as “fake news” on social media.
No official confirmation has come from Irani or Kapoor yet, leaving the chatter unverified. After losing her Amethi seat in 2024, Irani’s next move has been a hot topic. Could this be a triumphant small-screen return or just wishful nostalgia? For now, fans wait with bated breath.
