Hiten Tejwani reacts to Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Anupamaa's comparisons
In conversation with Telly Masala, Hiten Tejwani reacted to the ongoing social media war between Anupamaa and Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi fans. He said that fans should wait for the show's release and then make these comparisons.
Hiten Tejwani said, "Ab hum aa rahe hai, hume aane toh dijiye. Fir badme aap log hi decide karenge kon kya hai. Hum kaun hote hai kuch bolne wale (Now that we are coming, let us come. Later, you will only decide who is what. Who are we to judge)."
He continued, "Joh chiz achi hai ahci hai, joh achi nahi hai, aap maalik ho, aapko pata hai, sabko pata hai. Fans hai, sab vohi decide karte hai, unhe joh chiz pasand aati hai voh yun pasand aati hai, nahi aati voh turant bata dete hai. Aaj kal ki audience clear hai ye mamle mei (Something that is nice, is nice. You are the boss. You know better. Fans will decide whether they like something; if they don't, they will immediately decide. Nowadays, the audience is very clear in these things)."
The Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi actor added, "Hum log kisi ko neecha dikhane ya kuch niche karne uske liye nahi aa rahe hai. Ek nostalgia hai. I am sure makers bhi chahte the Ektaa ma'am bhi ki kuch laaye aur aaj ke time ki baate kar paaye. (We are not coming to make anyone feel lesser or do something that will make them feel less. This is nostalgia. I'm sure makers and Ektaa ma'am want to bring this and talk about current issues)."
Hiten recalled how the first season of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi discussed topics that no other serials had spoken about back then. He assured that this season would also address new issues of recent times that the audience would like.
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi will premiere from June 29 onwards.

Smriti Irani Reacts To Kyunki's High TRP: ‘We Have Set The Benchmark'
Last Updated: Smriti Irani celebrates Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2's high TRP, saying they've set the benchmark and have no competition but themselves after 25 years. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 aired last week on Star Plus, and with just a week of its premiere, it has beaten many and taken a mind-blowing start with a TRP of 2.3 in its first week, while the first episode TRP was 2.5. The show has reportedly defeated the famous Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and Rupali Ganguly's Anupamaa in the TRP race, and now, with the audience giving love to the show, Smriti has reacted to the high TRP. Recently, during an interview with Filmibeat, when Smriti Irani was asked about feeling pressure regarding TRP, the actress-politician said, 'I think we have set the benchmark. So, there's nobody else to compete with but us. But I also understand that when we began the show (25 years ago), there was no social media, there was no OTT, there was no fragmented audience, we had no PR, we had no hoarding, we had no Instagram to tell our viewers what is upcoming or who is in the cast. Nobody had any followers anywhere. So, to have our hands tied behind and still manage to give such an excellent product, for that time, was historical." 'Today's history has been created because there are no shows that can come back after 25 years and still be successful with the same cast, with the same production house, on the same network. So, I think we have managed to recreate history. For us today, we are free from the pressures of revenue or numbers because we have already proven our mark," she added. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: Star Cast and Episodes The new season of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi premiered on small screens on Star Plus on July 29 at 10:30 pm. Produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, the daily soap brings back the OG cast, including Smriti Irani, Shakti Anand, Ketki Dave, Hiten Tejwani, Gauri Pradhan, and Amar Upadhyay. Joining them are fresh faces like Shagun Sharma, Aman Gandhi, and Rohit Suchanti. The first season had approximately 1,833 episodes, making it one of the longest-running shows at the time, but Kyunki 2 is said to feature a limited number of episodes. What worked for Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot? Leaning heavily on nostalgia, the reboot used the original theme song and brought back iconic characters, aiming to connect with viewers who loved the early 2000s classic. The first episode also paid homage to characters like Baa and Savita Virani. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot first episode review News18 Showsha rated the show 3 out of 5 stars in its first-episode review of Ektaa Kapoor 's show. An excerpt from our review read: 'It is worth noting that as Ekta Kapoor reintroduces Tulsi and Mihir to the screen, she adds an emotional masterstroke — a beautifully edited video montage featuring their most iconic moments from the original series. This heartfelt compilation plays like a nostalgic rewind, capturing the essence of their enduring bond, dramatic highs, and tear-jerking lows. It's a deliberate and touching reminder of why these characters became household names in the first place." view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

I've always felt that my brothers have stood by me. My brother Anand, who is no longer with us, was my biggest strength during my Glad Rags struggle. I remember when the auditions were going on, he traveled with me to Bombay and was right there by my side. He used to buy me beautiful gifts, and I would do the same for him wherever I traveled—especially fine teas and souvenirs. I cherish those memories with him dearly.'

I feel like I'm going to learn a lot from her, and I always look forward to our scenes together. Every time we work, it feels like an opportunity to pick up something new.
