Following the 10-year leap, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 has shifted its focus to Tulsi's return to Shantiniketan after serving a decade in jail, only to find the Virani family torn apart by misunderstandings, power struggles and broken relationships. The current storyline revolves around Tulsi's efforts to reunite the family while dealing with Rounak's legal troubles and rising tensions within the household. The leap also brought major cast changes, with Shagun Sharma (Pari Virani) confirming her exit and several earlier characters being written out of the narrative. Meanwhile, Barkha Bisht has already returned as Noina with a twist, and reports suggest Amar Upadhyay is likely to reprise his role as Mihir once his reported fee negotiations with the makers are finalised. Actress Suvarna Jha is also expected to make a comeback as Tripti Virani, adding to the nostalgia factor of the reboot.
