Television star Shraddha Arya is set to make a triumphant return to Zee TV’s Kumkum Bhagya, reprising her beloved role as Preeta, a character that won millions of hearts in Kundali Bhagya. After welcoming her twins, Shaurya and Siya, last year, the actress took a well-deserved maternity break, leaving fans eager for her comeback. Now, with her babies approaching six months, Shraddha is ready to light up screens again, and her return promises to shake up the Kumkum Bhagya storyline with fresh drama and emotional twists.
Shraddha’s journey as Preeta began in Kundali Bhagya, a spin-off of Kumkum Bhagya, where she portrayed the spirited sister of Pragya (Sriti Jha). The show, produced by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, ran successfully for over seven years, completing more than 2,000 episodes before its abrupt end in December 2024. Shraddha’s exit from Kundali Bhagya coincided with her impending motherhood, a decision that marked the end of an era for the show. However, her return to the “Bhagya Universe” has reignited excitement, with fans flooding social media with anticipation.
In an exclusive statement to Telly Talk India/Times Now, Shraddha confirmed her comeback, saying, “A big yes! I missed being part of the Bhagya Universe.” She teased that shooting will begin soon, adding, “Soon enough for fans to not miss any episode of Kumkum Bhagya hereon.” While the makers have kept plot details under wraps, sources suggest Preeta’s re-entry will introduce a compelling arc, leveraging her iconic chemistry and emotional depth to captivate audiences.
Shraddha’s portrayal of Preeta, a practical yet passionate physiotherapist, earned her accolades, including Best Actress awards at the Gold Awards, Indian Telly Awards, and Indian Television Academy Awards. Her return to Kumkum Bhagya is a homecoming for the character, who shares a narrative connection with Pragya, setting the stage for potential crossovers or family-driven drama. Posts on X reflect the fan frenzy, with users calling her comeback “grand” and eagerly awaiting Preeta’s next chapter.
As Kumkum Bhagya continues to evolve with new leads like Pranali Rathod and Akshay Bindra, Shraddha’s re-entry as Preeta is poised to be a game-changer. Will she bring resolution to lingering family conflicts, or will her presence spark new rivalries? Fans are counting down to her first episode, ready to dive back into the emotional rollercoaster that defines the Bhagya saga.
