The announcement was made by the channel on Monday night, alongside the first look of Smriti Irani donning her familiar role as Tulsi. The reboot marks a nostalgic revival of one of India’s most beloved daily soaps, which originally aired from 2000 to 2008 and ruled the TRP charts for seven consecutive years.
“Kya aap abhi bhi vishwaas nahi kar paa rahe? 25 saal ke baad, Tulsi Virani laut rahi hai, ek nayi kahaani ke saath!” read the official post from Star Plus.
