Actor-politician Smriti Irani reflects on the reboot's creative vision, and why Kyunki... was always ahead of its time
After quitting acting to venture into politics, Smriti Irani is making her screen comeback with the very TV show that made her a household name 25 years ago - Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi (KSBKBT).
The actor-politician tells us that the reboot aims to reconnect with the loyal audience that made the show iconic.
“The idea is to give back to viewers who made it historic, to reconnect with that emotion. We have been through so much in our individual journeys in 25 years. How will that reflect in the creation and the relationships that are lived through the story? I look forward to this as a creative person,” she shares.
