In a conversation with Hindustan Times, Amar Upadhyay stated that the premiere of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi has been delayed and shared the reasons behind this postponement. He said, "Yes, it’s true. The set had to be reworked. The color combination on screen wasn’t translating the way it should."
Further, he called producer Ektaa R Kapoor a perfectionist and said, "Ektaa knows exactly what she wants—she’s a perfectionist. And this is Kyunki… it’s not just another show. It’s a legacy, and she wants to do everything that’s best for the show."

Amar shared that the mahurat shoot will occur on the 25th anniversary of the original premiere. He expressed how the wave of nostalgia is strong, but this time, they are approaching it with fresh energy, updated storytelling, and a well-crafted set.
He spoke about meeting Smriti Irani following the announcement of the second season and mentioned that the energy remains the same. The chemistry they shared as Mihir and Tulsi the heart and soul of Indian television, remains vibrant. He is confident that this spark will be rekindled in the new season.
Reports indicate that the shooting is taking place under extremely tight security measures and that the show will consist of only 150 episodes. The original Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi premiered on July 3, 2000, and concluded on November 6, 2008.
