Simaran Kaur goes undercover in a moustache & wig to rescue Neel in Jamai No. 1, says ' This was one of the most fun and challenging sequences'
TV's light-hearted family drama Jamai No. 1 continues to win over audiences with its mix of laughter, emotion, and unexpected twists. The show follows the journey of Neel (Abhishek Malik), who enters his wife Riddhi's (
Simaran Kaur
) household as a ghar jamai, setting off a series of hilarious and heartfelt events.
In the upcoming episodes, the stakes get higher—and funnier—as Riddhi and her entire family pull off a complex rescue mission to help Neel escape trouble at the police station.
In a side-splitting yet dramatic sequence, Riddhi goes completely undercover, disguising herself as a male pest control worker—complete with a wig, cap, gloves, overalls, and a convincingly comical moustache. Simaran Kaur's transformation is both impressive and entertaining, adding a delightful twist to the narrative.
The entire family poses as a fake pest control team, armed with spray tanks and protective gear, in a desperate bid to break Neel free without raising suspicion.
What follows is a chaotic yet emotionally driven sequence that blends comedy, suspense, and family dynamics.
Simaran Kaur said, 'This was one of the most fun and challenging sequences I've done on the show so far. The entire process of getting into the look took time—from the wig to fixing the moustache, getting into the overalls, and adjusting my body language to appear like a man.
It was hilarious because we all looked so different, my co-actors and I couldn't stop laughing seeing each other in these getups. We even did our own mirror rehearsals just to perfect the walk and mannerisms.
As an actor, I love experimenting with new looks and characters, and this disguise gave me a chance to do something completely unexpected. It was a memorable shoot, and I'm sure the audience will enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed performing it!'
While Riddhi had fun shooting into this new look for the show, it will be interesting for the viewers to witness if she will be successful in getting Neel out of the police station or will Sayli (Sonal Vengurlekar) will create more difficulties in their lives.

Simaran Kaur preps for her courtroom act for Jamai No. 1, says 'Watching the classic Bollywood movie Aitraaz, gave me great insight'
TV's gripping family drama Jamai No. 1 has kept viewers glued ever since its inception with its twists, turns, and intense emotional arcs. Now, in a dramatic new development, Riddhi ( Simaran Kaur ) will take a bold stand as she steps into the courtroom to defend her husband, Neel (Abhishek Malik), who has been falsely accused of a heinous act by Sayli (Sonal Vengurlekar). The upcoming episodes promise to showcase a powerful transformation — Simaran's character evolves from a devoted wife into a fierce lawyer, fighting for justice. What makes this even more special is that Simaran is essaying the role of a lawyer on screen, and she's left no stone unturned to make it authentic and impactful. From understanding legal nuances to watching courtroom dramas for reference, Simaran embraced the challenge head-on. Among her key inspirations was the critically acclaimed Bollywood film Aitraaz, where Kareena Kapoor Khan delivered an unforgettable performance as Advocate Priya Saxena Malhotra, defending her husband in a high-stakes harassment case. Simaran brought the same energy to her role, making Riddhi both fiercely determined and emotionally relatable in the face of injustice in Jamai No 1. Sharing her preparation process, Simaran Kaur said, 'I was really excited when I found out Riddhi would fight Neel's case in the court. It's such a powerful plot progression—from an emotional breakdown to regaining composure and stepping into a courtroom as a woman on a mission, it will definitely inspire many. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo Before portraying the role of a lawyer, I wanted to understand the body language, tone, and confidence that a lawyer exudes. Watching a few courtroom dramas, especially the classic Bollywood movie Aitraaz, gave me great insight, especially about how Kareena's character presents herself in court with quiet strength and strong moral conviction. I took notes on how to build that energy into Riddhi without over dramatising.' She further added, 'It wasn't just about memorising lines—it was about owning that space. I worked with the team on my delivery, rehearsed a lot, and even practised speaking while pacing, just like a real courtroom lawyer. I hope audiences can feel the sincerity and fire that Riddhi brings to the scenes. This track is going to be one of the most empowering chapters for my character yet.' As the show enters this intense legal showdown, the stakes have never been higher. But will Riddhi be able to dismantle Sayli's web of lies and prove Neel's innocence? Or will the courtroom drama tilt in favour of Sayli's manipulative plans?
