In a video shared on Instagram, Amar said, 'I don't believe it. Yeh actually ho raha hai. Kabhi socha nahi Season 2 bhi plan hoga, shoot hona (This is really happening. I never imagined that a new season would be planned, and now it is being shot. This is unbelievable). Ek saath sabko laana. Itna bada iconic show hai, usko fir se laana bohot badi baat hoti hai. (To bring everyone together. It is such an iconic show, and to bring it back is a big deal)."
Further talking about how season 2 came to him, the actor added, 'Tanu ne phone kiya is baar (Tanu had called me). She said, 'Block your dates, we are doing Kyunki…Season 2. So mujhe pehle usne bataya to believe hi nahi hua. Maine kaha 'Are you sure?' I thought it was a prank or something. I asked her, 'Is Smriti doing Tulsi?'"
Lastly, sharing his excitement for meeting 'good friend" Smriti Irani after a long period, Amar said in the promo clip, 'Abhi zyada nahi bataunga. Bohot time baad milunga Smriti ko. We have always been good friends on set. Acche dost hai jab pehle mile the tab se. Will pick up from where we left. (Now, I'm not going to reveal anything much. I will see Smriti after a long time. We've always been good friends on set. We've been friends since we first met. Will pick off where we left off.)"
The promo caption reads, 'Jahan Tulsi, wahan Mihir.. ab dono phir se ek saath. Kya aap phir se ye jodi dekhne ke liye taiyaar hain? Dekhiye Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, 29th July se raat 10:30 baje sirf StarPlus par, aur kabhi bhi JioHotstar par."
