Speaking to TOI, Saumya Tandon revealed that she has given her sweat and blood to the role and is happy that Nehha Pendse will be taking it forward. Saumya Tandon said, "I’m happy to hear this news. Nehha is a good choice. I have worked with her on a non-fiction show. While I hosted it, she performed gags in it. She is talented and professional. I am certain that she will do justice to the part. I have given my sweat, blood and heart to this character. I am glad she is portraying it."

"It is a huge responsibility and no doubt, there are some big shoes to fill. But I am sure the audience will shower their new Anita Bhabi with as much love and affection. I am eagerly looking forward to starting shooting soon," she added. "One thing I can assure you, there is much more oomph, glamour, humour and fun in store."
"Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain!" revolves around two neighboring couples, the Mishras and the Tiwaris, where both husbands have a crush on the other man's wife.
