Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: The premiere sees Smriti Irani back as Tulsi, bringing sanskaar, family drama and nostalgia in full force. Here's what happened in Episode 1.
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 Episode 1 Written Updates: The much-awaited reboot of Ekta Kapoor's iconic daily soap, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, premiered on July 29, and Episode 1 delivered a heavy dose of nostalgia, tradition and fresh drama. Smriti Irani returns as Tulsi Virani, the soul of the show, and her comeback scene — performing aarti outside the Virani household — instantly transports viewers to the golden era of Indian TV.
The episode opens with a powerful throwback to the original as the classic title track plays, now woven with the entry of new characters like Ritik (Aman Gandhi), Angad (Rohit Suchanti), and Paridhi (Shagun Sharma). Familiar faces including Hiten Tejwani, Gauri Pradhan, Ritu Chaudhary, Ketki Dave and Shakti Anand also return, offering a perfect blend of old and new.
As Tulsi manages household chores and prepares for her 38th wedding anniversary with Mihir (Amar Upadhyay), emotions run high. She reminisces about Baa and her late mother-in-law, grounding the episode in family values and emotional depth.
Conflict begins to simmer as Gayatri chachi (Kamalika Guha) plots against Tulsi, feeling overshadowed in the household. She urges her son Hemant (Shakti Anand) to claim control, but he refuses, saying Tulsi and Mihir are his role models.
Meanwhile, the next-gen trio—Paridhi, Angad, and Ritik—are introduced with their own emotional complexities. Paridhi, feeling alienated, confides in her boyfriend but is cautioned by Angad not to misjudge Tulsi's intentions.
A moment of misunderstanding arises when Mihir forgets to wish Tulsi, leaving her heartbroken. But he redeems himself with a heartfelt surprise—gifting her a luxury car and sharing an emotional anniversary wish that brings tears and closure.
The episode ends with Gayatri scheming in the shadows while Tulsi prays for her family's happiness, signaling that this new era of Kyunki will retain its iconic emotional pull while introducing fresh drama.
