‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’ vs ‘Anupamaa’: Smriti Irani’s Comment Upsets Cast Members
Recently, Smriti Irani made a comment about the serial "Anupamaa," which angered the cast. Smriti stated that she doesn't see Rupali Ganguly's show as a competitor to her iconic "Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2."
Ekta Kapoor's popular show "Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi" returned to television after 17 years. The show received rave reviews and was competing with Rupali Ganguly's hit series "Anupamaa." Anupamaa consistently ranked number one on the TRP charts.
This prompted many to compare it to "Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi." Subsequently, in an interview, Smriti Irani dismissed claims that 'Anupama' was a competitor to 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'. Her comments have disappointed the Anupama cast.
Several Anupama cast members reacted to Smriti's interview clip and expressed their displeasure. Actress Alpana Buch, who plays Baa on the show, said, "Respected Smriti ji, this was not expected from you." Actress Miloni Kapadia, who plays Kinjal, wrote, "It breaks my heart to see our love not reciprocated."
