Everything would be falling apart around her, but a smile from her face and her once inspirational dialogues would make the audience forget the trauma and believe that Tulsi can fix anything no matter what. Her lectures demanded our attention a sigh of relief and a sense of righteouness resonated that was not over bearing to hear or not was it ever hypocritical.
Her once dynamic character was flawless, Tulsi was the bright shinning beacon of Kyunki. But that beacon is burning out, is it a deliberate attempt by Ekta to burn it out completely so that Tulsi is disposed off because of smriti's lack of availability to portray the character of Tulsi. If this is the end then it is a sad way to end one of the great characters of Indian television. The only other character that I can think of that matched Tulsi's status as the queen was in the south Indian soap Radika as Chithi. A wall with no support that would remaining standing even when everything around it is collapsing is also now succumbing to the inevitable doom which once thought impossible.
