Tulsi Drama Upgraded or Just Reheated Masala?
Nearly 2 decades after it ruled living rooms across Mauritius – India’s most iconic TV soap is back from the dead! Yes, you read that right. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi is making a dramatic comeback with Season 2.
Back then, streets went quiet at 6:30, families huddled around the TV, and more than a few curries were forgotten on the stove – all thanks to Tulsi and her legendary glare.
But the real question is – do we truly want it back, or are we just chasing nostalgia?
Tulsi Reborn or Just Recycled?
It’s impossible to talk about Kyunki Saas… without whispering “Tulsi Virani” like she’s a sacred chant. Smriti Irani’s iconic portrayal of the ideal Indian daughter-in-law turned matriarch wasn’t just a role – it was a national obsession. And guess what? She’s back. Yes, Smriti Irani is officially returning to reprise her legendary role as Tulsi, bringing with her all the gravitas, grace, and no-nonsense glares we’ve missed for nearly two decades.
Word on the street is that Season 2 won’t be a direct continuation but a spiritual reboot, set in the same universe, with a brand-new family tree tangled in the same old thorns – inheritance wars, sudden amnesia, fake deaths, secret twins, and of course, the mandatory “Tulsi-style” stare into the distance with dramatic lighting.
Ekta Kapoor’s Comeback Moment?
Let’s not forget who’s behind this chaos: TV Queen Ekta Kapoor, the mastermind of serials that lasted longer than most marriages. With Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’s reboot, she’s not just trying to revive a show – she’s reviving an era. But does today’s audience – hooked on quick-fix over the top thrillers and dark romances – really have the patience for daily soap slow burns?
Well, Ekta’s betting big. The show’s trailer has already dropped with over-the-top dialogues, temple bells ringing for no reason, and more tears than a K-drama binge. And yes, they’ve kept the title track – but with a modern remix that no one asked for.
Gen Z Bahus, Same Old Drama?
This time, the bahus are bolder, the saases sassier, and the men… still mostly useless. We’re promised a storyline that “resonates with today’s women,” but how modern can a soap be if one character still falls down the stairs every week?
Still, there’s curiosity. Will this new Tulsi slap patriarchy with a designer clutch? Will we finally get a male character who has more emotions than “confused” and “manipulated”? Will the show dare to break its own toxic tropes?
The Verdict: Should you watch Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi?
Let’s be real – Season 2 of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi isn’t trying to be edgy or revolutionary. It’s trying to give us what we secretly crave: drama, betrayal with background score, and comfort TV that feels like visiting your over-involved auntie.
So, if you’re expecting next-level storytelling – run. But if you’re ready for plot twists that make no sense but still feel like home – grab your remote. Because where else can you find three generations crying in sync under one chandelier?
