Ektaa Kapoor hints Smriti Irani in the Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot?

​Ektaa R Kapoor has recently provided more insights into the much-anticipated reboot of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, revealing that the series will consist of 150 episodes. She explained that this number holds significance, as the original show concluded in 2008 just short of reaching the 2000-episode milestone. The reboot aims to complete this journey, honoring the original’s legacy.

Addressing the casting of the lead character, Tulsi Virani, Ektaa hinted at an exciting development, stating, “We are bringing politics into entertainment, or better, a politician into entertainment.” This suggests that Smriti Irani, who portrayed Tulsi in the original series, may reprise her role in the reboot.

Regarding the character of Mihir Virani, multiple actors, including Amar Upadhyay, Cezzane Khan, and Ronit Roy, are reportedly under consideration. However, no official announcements have been made, and fans eagerly await further updates. ​

In related news, Ektaa Kapoor has announced the rerun of the original Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi series, which will begin airing on February 16 on Star Plus at 5 PM on weekdays. This rebroadcast aims to rekindle the nostalgia associated with the show and introduce it to a new generation of viewers. ​

These developments have generated significant excitement among fans, eager to see how the reboot honors the original while introducing fresh narratives and characters.
