Mumbai: The Virani family is gearing up for two grand weddings, but an unexpected return is set to bring a major twist to their lives. After an 18-year gap, actor Suvarna Jha is making a comeback as the iconic character Tripti Virani in Star Plus’ popular show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.
Tripti, known for her sharp instincts, manipulative strategies and impactful decisions, had once changed the course of the Virani family’s journey. With her return, viewers can expect another intense face-off between Tripti and Tulsi, one of the most memorable rivalries of the show. As old relationships are tested once again, the storyline is set to take a dramatic new turn.
Sharing her excitement about reprising the role, Suvarna Jha said, “Playing Tripti again after 18 years feels like a dream come true. Along with the happiness of returning, there is also a sense of nervousness because audiences still remember me as Tripti and not necessarily as the person I am today. Tripti has always been a very special and memorable character, and I know she holds a unique place in people’s hearts. I hope viewers welcome this new and more mature version of Tripti with the same love and affection.”
Talking about returning to the sets after such a long time, Suvarna added that the experience was extremely special. “Meeting my old friends and colleagues again felt like coming back to my own family. I am equally excited to see what new things Tripti has in store this time. The moment I am waiting for the most is her face-off with Tulsi once again.”

With Suvarna Jha’s return, the much-loved drama promises fresh twists, emotional confrontations and a renewed battle of relationships within the Virani family.
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi airs every night at 10:30 PM on Star Plus and is also available for streaming anytime on JioHotstar.
