Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi (क्योंिक सास भी कभी बहू थी - Because a Mother-in-law was once a Daughter-in-law too) is a popular Hindi TV soap opera produced by Balaji Telefilms, that revolves around the lives of the fictitious Virani family. The show has been airing since year 2000 on STAR Plus channel worldwide.

[edit] About The Show

The story focuses on the wealthy Virani family, which hails from Gujarat. The Viranis are quite successful and well-known in the corporate world. The story is mainly focused on Tulsi Virani, daughter of the family priest, who elopes with the family's eldest son, Mihir. The entire family except Govardhan Virani (the patriach) and Amba Virani (the matriarch) (played by Sudha Shivpuri) are against it. Due to anger, the daughters-in-law of the family, Savita (Apara Mehta), Daksha (Ketaki Dave) and Gayatri (Kamalika Guhathakurta) blame Tulsi for charming Mihir into marrying her and entering their rich household from a smaller, middle-class family. However, due to respect and belief in God Shri Shrinathji, called Thakurji, a form of Lord Krishna, Tulsi fights the injustice and battles her mother-in-law and devranis (wives of the younger brothers of a woman's husband).

The entire serial focuses on the battle between the mothers-in-law and Tulsi and in the process teaching them a lesson and earning respect from her family members. Along the road, many new characters enter the scene. The old characters who decide to discontinue are promptly replaced by new ones (following an accident and plastic surgery explaining the new face).

[edit] Return of Smriti Irani

As of April 10, 2008, Smriti Irani once again reprised her role as Tulsi Virani and replace Gautami Kapoor. This is after a break of over 8 months. It was at the Balaji Global Indian Television Awards held a few months ago where Balaji chief Ekta Kapoor and Smriti decided to patch up. She apparently seems to have lost her memory and due to that Gautami Kapoor is shown as the vamp.
