MUMBAI: In a move that has stirred a wave of nostalgia and excitement across the country, television czarina Ektaa Kapoor has officially confirmed the revival of one of Indian television’s most iconic dramas, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.
Originally airing on Star Plus at 10:30 PM, the show first graced screens in 2000 and quickly cemented its place as a cultural phenomenon, dominating the TRP charts for an extraordinary eight-year run.
At the heart of the show was the unforgettable love story of Tulsi and Mihir, portrayed by Smriti Irani and Amar Upadhyay, whose on-screen chemistry, emotional depth, and dramatic twists left an indelible mark on viewers. So intense was the audience’s connection that Mihir’s tragic exit from the storyline triggered a nationwide emotional reaction—an unparalleled testament to the show’s impact.
Now, after years of speculation and eager anticipation from fans, Ektaa Kapoor has finally announced that the legendary series is making a grand comeback, promising to reignite the magic that once gripped the hearts of millions.
TellyChakkar recently caught up with Amar Upadhyay to discuss the buzz surrounding his possible return as the beloved Mihir Virani. With fans going into a frenzy over the rumours, the excitement is palpable.
Speaking exclusively to us, the actor shared, “Yes, discussions are underway, but nothing has been finalised yet. At this point, I can’t confirm anything, but fans will hear something soon. I’m truly humbled by their unwavering love and support – it’s what drives me to keep striving for more. Whatever I am today is thanks to them, and I promise never to take that for granted. I’m immensely grateful.”
There’s no denying that even after all these years, Amar Upadhyay remains etched in viewers’ hearts as Mihir Virani – a character that continues to be one of Indian television’s most iconic and cherished roles.
