Sasural Simar Ka is Trending Because Its Bahu is Now a Fly. No Idea Why

New Delhi: So, a saas-bahu soap just turned its main bahu into a house fly - it was every bit as absurd as it sounds and Twitter is having something of a meltdown. 'Sasural Simar Ka,' which is the name of the show, trended on Twitter on Monday after the story arc of Simar - played by actress Dipika Kakar - was turned into a fly as punishment for events that we are none too clear about.

No good can come of this but this much we gather - Twitter is having none of it.
 

So some Indian drama turned it's lead actress into a fly... Sounds like a very Indian Television thing to do tbh

The best thing about Simar from Sasural Simar Ka turning into housefly is that a housefly normally lives for only a month

Fingers crossed

Is there a script or do they do impromptu acting on set? #SasuralSImarKa #justasking

Sasural Simar Ka, which has been on air since 2011, appears to have taken a preternatural twist with the bahus - Simar and her sister Roli - under siege from assorted ghosts, ghouls and an ichhadhari naagin.

More when we demystify the house fly situation.
