She is one having one of the most continuous presence on the show. She played the popular Baa, who finally died at the age of 100 plus, just before the sixth generation leap.

Understandably, Shivpuri is disappointed with serial's end. "We read in the newspapers about the dipping TRPs. Ups and downs are part of any show. I think a show that changed TV history deserved a better ending. Watching Kyunki had become a part of my life," she says.

Her most memorable moment:
"My husband Govardhan Virani's death scene where I ask him why he has left me. It is the most memorable because I could connect to my real husband's death.

"The second most memorable moment would have to be when Tulsi (Smirti Irani) leaves Shanthineketan for Mandira (Mandira Bedi). That scene was emotional for me because we were like a family in real life too."
