Saumya Tandon is enjoying a strong phase in her career as her recent film Dhurandhar, starring Ranveer Singh in the lead role, continues its successful run at the box office. Known to television audiences for her iconic portrayal of Anita Narayan Mishra in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, the actress has now addressed long-standing speculation around her possible return to the popular sitcom and shared updates about her upcoming projects.
In a recent Zoom interview, the 41-year-old actor spoke candidly about Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai 2.0, Dhurandhar 2, and her future plans. Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai 2.0 premiered on &TV and ZEE5 on December 22, with Vidisha Srivastava stepping in to replace Saumya after her exit from the original show. The return of Shilpa Shinde as Angoori Bhabhi after nearly a decade reignited fan hopes that Saumya might also reprise her role as Anita.
However, the actress firmly shut down the rumours. “No, I am not coming back to Bhabiji at all. I have moved on to another project,” Saumya stated. She further clarified that her current commitments make a return impossible, adding, “At the moment, I am doing something else. So that is totally out of question.”
Saumya also confirmed that she will not be part of the upcoming Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain! film titled Fun On The Run, which is slated for a theatrical release on February 6, 2026. The film will feature Shubhangi Atre and Rohitashv Gour in lead roles.
On the film front, Saumya shared a positive update for fans of Dhurandhar. She confirmed that she will reprise her role as Ulfat in Dhurandhar 2, which is expected to release on March 19, 2026. However, she cautioned audiences to expect limited screen time in the sequel. “My husband has died in the story, so you will see me, but you are not going to have a lot of me,” she revealed.
Despite the smaller role, Saumya expressed satisfaction with the impact her character made in the first film. “I didn’t have a major part, but Ulfat made a lot of impact, which I had not expected,” she said.
Saumya Tandon began her television journey with Aisa Des Hai Mera in 2006 and went on to appear in films like Jab We Met as Roop Dhillon. While fans may miss her as Anita Bhabhi, the actress is clearly focused on evolving creatively and exploring new chapters beyond her iconic TV role.
