''Kumkum Bhagya has been just love and a lot of fun... I have found friends and family in this show in some people and both in some. The last five years have been the best. I am as much of a fan of this show as anyone else. I love how it’s inappropriately funny at times and appropriately emotional at other times. I have so much love and gratitude for everyone who has walked in and and out of this show

Allah waariyaan is so much more than a song for me...for all of us

Thank you so much people.. all of you people in front of the camera and behind... in front of the screens

Lots and lots of happy love to everyone!!!

Thank you @ektaravikapoor for getting us all together

Thank you @varunthebabbar @shri.n Ravi ji for making work look like a grand vacation. The production team is one of the best that I’ve ever worked with. I throw my weight around and they never seem to complain. This had to be said

And thank you on behalf of my family that is the cast and crew of Kumkum Bhagya. ???????????????? साथ छूटे ना *cue for chorus.''
