Star Plus’ most loved show, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi has made a dramatic leap, promising emotionally charged episodes and unexpected twists.

Amar Upadhyay on the leap
Speaking about the leap, Amar revealed that the development took him by surprise and demanded intense emotional depth as a performer. Reflecting on Mihir’s journey post-leap, the actor said, “When I found out about the leap, it genuinely shocked me, and I can say that the upcoming episodes are going to be very interesting. This phase has been one of the most challenging parts of playing Mihir, because once again he ends up betraying Tulsi’s love and trust.”
He further elaborated on the emotional complexity of the character, highlighting how Mihir becomes the source of pain for the person who loves him unconditionally. “Tulsi loves Mihir with complete honesty and depth, and yet Mihir becomes the person who hurts her the most,” Amar added, underlining the heartbreak at the core of the narrative.
One of the most poignant moments for Mihir after the leap is his return to Shantiniketan, now stripped of its warmth and life. Describing the experience, Amar shared, “Stepping into Shantiniketan after the leap, and finding it empty, was deeply heartbreaking for me as Mihir. That silence spoke louder than words. It wasn’t just a house, it was once full of love, family, and shared memories.”

Earlier, Amar exclusively shared with mid-day, "We all met at Ektaa's house before starting with the shoot, and it was a surreal moment. An iconic reunion, I must say. All of us had so much to share about the show and bring back the old memories. It felt like we are continuing to shoot for Kyunki after a break. All of us caught up and spoke about the old times when we used to meet every day and shoot for the show. We are bringing back the same nostalgia with the second season and hoping that though it is a finite series, fans shower us with the same love."
He concluded by noting that Mihir’s internal conflict, living with guilt while confronting the consequences of his choices, adds emotional weight and realism to the storyline, making it compelling for viewers.
