MUMBAI: In Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2, while Tanish Mahendru’s portrayal of the cunning yet magnetic Ranvijay is making waves, the actor himself is basking in another surreal experience — working alongside none other than Smriti Irani.
For Tanish, sharing the screen with the iconic actress is more than just a career milestone. “Like most of us, I grew up watching Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. To now be part of its legacy with Smriti ma’am herself feels like life has come full circle,” he shares with a smile.
Calling her a powerhouse of talent and discipline, Tanish adds, “Smriti ma’am brings unmatched energy to the set. She’s precise, deeply committed to her craft, and at the same time, incredibly warm and supportive towards her co-actors. Watching her perform live is like attending a masterclass in acting every single day.”
The young actor admits that working opposite such a stalwart is both challenging and inspiring. “Her presence pushes you to give your best in every frame. As Ranvijay, I constantly have to bring intensity and unpredictability, and Smriti ma’am’s command over her performance makes you raise your own bar. You simply don’t want to miss a beat.”
For fans, the combination of Smriti Irani’s nostalgia-laced return and Tanish Mahendru’s fresh, magnetic energy has become one of the biggest talking points of the show. And for Tanish, it’s a chapter he considers truly special. “This experience is shaping me not just as an actor, but also as a person. I feel extremely fortunate.”
Talking about the show, the upcoming episodes promise more drama as the biggest question looms: how will Tulsi react when she discovers the shocking truth about Pari and Ranvijay’s equation?
