Overview

• Smriti Irani returns as Tulsi Virani in Balaji Telefilms’ reboot titled Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi: Tulsi Ka Safar, with Amar Upadhyay reprising Mihir Virani.
• Official first-look images depict Tulsi in a maroon saree and traditional jewelry, signaling a deliberate nod to the original’s iconic style.
• Ektaa Kapoor calls the show a curated homage that condenses the most powerful moments of the original into a fresh narrative.
• The series will air daily at 10:30 p.m. on Star Plus and stream simultaneously on JioHotstar in a hybrid broadcast–streaming rollout.
• The finite 150-episode format reflects a shift in Indian television toward limited high-impact seasons designed for both loyal viewers and newcomers.
