Shagun Sharma on Garima’s safe return in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2; says 'I feel it’s important to show that protecting a child isn't just about holding their hand'

The ongoing scene in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi revolved around Garima, Pari's daughter, who was kidnapped but fortunately returned home safely. Tulsi explains the importance of "good touch" and "bad touch" to Garima in a very sensitive and straightforward way.

She helps her in realising that any touch that causes her to feel unsafe needs to be discussed right away. Families watching together will find the sequence to be both impactful and approachable because it is handled with care and clarity.Shagun Sharma, who plays Pari, Tulsi's daughter and Garima's mother, reflected on this compelling plot and offered her opinions on how to portray such an emotionally complex scene. "This recent storyline was extremely intense to work on," she remarked.

As an actor playing Garima's mother,that a child needs knowledge and awareness in addition to love and care. The lesson that followed was the true turning point, even though her return to the house was a huge relief.I am so glad our show highlighted the importance of a mother and grandmother taking the lead on the ‘good touch and bad touch’ conversation. It can be a difficult topic for many parents to approach, but it is perhaps the most vital one we can have.

I feel it’s important to show that protecting a child isn't just about holding their hand; it’s about giving them the voice to speak up. Seeing this play out in the show makes me feel that we are helping to raise a generation that is not just safe, but truly empowered.

Earlier, actor Amar Upadhyay, who plays Mihir said these conversations may be uncomfortable but they are important. He said normalising them would help build awareness and create a safer environment for children.Amar Upadhyay shares, “Being connected with a show that has millions of households, I feel it is our responsibility to do more than entertain. To talk about good touch and bad touch is not a story line but is a conversation that is required. The topic is uncomfortable but our children’s safety is more important than our discomfort."
