Ekta Kapoor’s Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 is set to air in just a few days. The daily soap marks a return 25 years after the original, with Smriti Irani reprising her iconic role as Tulsi Virani. Ahead of the premiere, the makers have released a new behind-the-scenes video aimed at sparking curiosity about the plot. Without revealing much, the promo poses several questions that connect to the first season, tapping into nostalgia for longtime fans.
In the teaser, Hiten Tejwani aka Karan Virani says, “Iss baar Shanti Niketan mein bahut kuch alag hona wala hai.” His on-screen and real life wife Gauri Pradhan aka Nandini Virani adds, “There used to be our favourite dining table spot in the first part, let’s see if it is still there or not.” “Just like last season, iss season mein bhi Tulsi ke paudhe ki ehmiyat bahut zyada hai (Tulsi plant will have a lot of importance in the new season as well),” shares Shagun Sharma, who has joined the OG members. After building anticipation, the cast urges viewers to tune in on July 29 to uncover all the answers.

Meanwhile, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 is being compared to Rupali Ganguly’s hit television show Anupamaa on social media. Reacting to the same, Hiten Tejwani told Telly Masal, “Ab hum aa rahe hain, humein aane toh dijiye. Fir baad mein aap log hi decide karenge kon kya hai. Hum kaun hote hain kuch bolne waale. Jo cheez achhi hai, achhi hai, joh achhi nahi hai, aap maalik ho, aapko pata hai, sabko pata hai.”
He added, “Fans hain, sab woh hi decide karte hain, unhein joh cheez pasand aati hai woh yun pasand aati hai, nahi aati woh turant bata dete hain. Aaj kal ki audience clear hai ye mamle mein. Hum log kisi ko neecha dikhaane ya kuch niche karne uske liye nahi aa rahe hain. Ek nostalgia hai. I am sure makers bhi chahte the Ektaa ma’am bhi ki kuch laaye aur aaj ke time ki baate kar paaye.”
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 will air from July 29, 2025 at 10:30 pm on Star Plus. It will stream on Jio Hotstar.
