Smriti had shared a throwback video to celebrate 21 years of 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi' in July 2021. She wrote, "We had made a promise ‘Phir Milenge’, a promise we could not keep. 21 years ago began a journey which changed many a lives - brought joy to some, annoyed a few but impacted all those who saw it, who worked for it. Thank you for the memories."
'KSBKBT', which ended in 2008, was the first Hindi fiction show to cross the 1800-plus episode mark. Colors TV's 'Balika Vadhu' broke Kyunki's record in 2015.
While Ritu is currently busy with Star Plus' 'Imlie', Smriti is serving as the Union Minister of Women and Child Development.
