The now off air show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya yet again made headlines recently after music producer Yashraj Mukhate created Rasode Mein Kaun Tha rap video featuring characters Kokilaben (Rupal Patel), Gopi Bahu (Gia Manek) and Rashi (Rucha Hasabnis). Now, as the video continues to trend on social media, producer Rashmi Sharma confirmed that she will be taking the show forward with its sequel. Talking to a leading daily about the same, Rashmi said that Saath Nibhaana Saathiya's second season will have new characters and twists but it will still remain a show that is driven by relationships.
"Saathiya has been a talking point since its launch in 2010. Even after it ended, it remained on top of my mind and we came up with some ideas on how we could take it forward. During the lockdown, its reruns were widely watched and that made us believe this is a good time to bring it back with a new season. Its recall value is still very strong. There will be many new characters and a twist in the storyline, but it will remain a family show and be driven by relationships," Rashmi told.
She further added that Kokilaben and Gopi Bahu will be returning to the show. For the unversed, Devoleena Bhattacharjee replaced Gia in Saath Nibhaana Saathiya. It is also reported that she shot for a teaser on Tuesday. Rashmi told that new faces will also be launched in the show. "Saathiya can’t return without the Modi family, so yes, Kokilaben and Gopi will be back. But the hunt is also on for new faces," Rashmi said.
