Looking at whats gone on today and also what smitri said in sbs i think that though gautamis taken over as tulsi at the moment...that smitri might be back she seemed pretty sure yesterday shes not leaving so hope she comes back at some point she had grown on me since i come to if etc even though dont really watch the show
well this was written a week ago but today saw a article where ekta was interviewed i think on if in the newsroom and it says that smitris taking a break not left for good
