Indian television's iconic 'Bahu' Tulsi Virani is all set for a legendary comeback, as producer Ekta Kapoor revives one of India's most beloved shows, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.
The return also marks the reappearance of Smriti Irani's unforgettable 'adarsh bahu' character, still etched into the hearts of millions across the globe.
But this revival isn't just a wave of nostalgia - it's also a fashion moment. Celebrated Indian designer Gaurang Shah has taken the reins to redefine Tulsi's look, creating a capsule collection that blurs the line between costume and couture.
Known for his expertise in handwoven heirlooms, Gaurang promises to infuse Smriti Irani's character with colour, culture, and elegance through featherlight Kanjeevarams, vibrant silk Bandhanis, Jamdani weaves, and symbolic chiffons.
Tulsi's wardrobe will go beyond on-screen style, each piece will tell a story, woven into India's rich textile heritage, and will even be available for audiences to experience.

Draped in traditional Gujarati style, the saree came in a regal purple shade, featuring subtle prints across the bodice and pallu—reflecting the spirit of a woman who balances tradition with progress.

Yuzvendra Chahal finally breaks silence on cheating rumours amid divorce with Dhanashree Verma: 'I had suicidal thoughts, I was tired of my...'
Indian cricketer, Yuzvendra Chahal, who grabbed eyeballs for his closeness with RJ Mahvash amid divorce with Dhanashree Verma, revealed he suffered from mental health issues due to cheating allegations during his divorce rumours. 'I think when my divorce happened, people alleged me of being a cheater. I have never cheated in my life. I am not that kind of a person. You won't find anyone more loyal than me. I think from my heart for my closed ones, always. I do not demand, I always give. When people don't know anything, but they keep blaming me, so you start thinking [otherwise],' said the cricketer while talking to Raj Shamani on his YouTube channel. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD He also shared that the intense public scrutiny during the divorce proceedings affected him mentally and also led to suicidal thoughts. 'I had suicidal thoughts, I was tired of my life, I used to cry for 2 hours. I used to sleep just for 2 hours. It went for 40-45 days. I wanted a break from cricket. I was so busy in cricket. I was not able to concentrate. I used to sleep for 2 hours. Used to share suicidal thoughts with my friend. I used to get scared,' he added. The cricketer also admitted to being pretentious by showing that he is in a happy relationship at times. 'A relationship is like a compromise. If one gets angry, the other has to listen. Sometimes the nature of two people does not match. I was playing for India, she was also doing her. This was going on for 1-2 years. At that point, I was so much into it, I had to give time here, give time there. I was not able to think about the relationship. Then it happens every day, you think, leave it. Two ambitious people can stay together. Everyone has their own lives. Everyone has their own goals. As a partner, you have to support it. You are working for something for 18-20 years, you cannot leave it for a relationship,' the cricketer shared.
