Mumbai 22 August IANS: Ekta Kapoor's Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi season 2 kickstarted a few weeks ago and went onto top TRP charts in the first week itself.

The makers recently recreated the iconic scene from season 1 where Tulsi and Mihir, the lead protagonists bump into each other, making all the colour on the plate in Tulsi’s hands, smear on Mihir’s kurta. This scene had become extremely popular in Season 1, back in early 2000s.

The recreation of the same scene, after 25 years in season 2 made fans take a trip down memory lane.

The video clip of the same was shared on the host channel's Instagram account, that was soon flooded with fan comments.

Actor-turned-politician Smriti Irani has reprised the role of Tulsi while Amar Upadhyay is essaying the role of Mihir.

According to Broadcast Audience Research Council of India (BARC) data, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Season 2, in the first week itself garnered a TRP of 2.3, and sidelined Anupama that was ruling the roost for the longest time now in the category of fictional shows on Hindi GEC.
