It’s been more than 18 years now that Ekta Kapoor and Smriti Irani are best-friends-cum-soul-sisters, and they are only growing stronger with every passing year. Smriti Irani and Ekta Kapoor have been each other’s confidant, and when Ekta had embraced motherhood (via surrogacy) on January 27, 2019, Smriti ji had also signed up as a proud maasi for Ekta’s son, Ravie Kapoor.
On June 26, 2020, Ekta Kapoor took to her Instagram handle to share a major throwback video of her soul sister, Smriti Irani from her Miss India days. Smriti Irani had participated in Miss India 1998 and Ekta shared a video of her introduction clip from the same. Along with it, Ekta penned down an appreciation post for her. Ekta mentioned how Smriti ji has struggled hard to be there where she is now. She wrote, “Appreciation Post for my friend Smriti Irani who started off not winning Miss India but went on to become a household name. This is for people who think that success comes easy...it is tough, it is hard but it comes to all those who work hard. Smriti became a household name, today is a minister.” Take a look:
She further talked about how Smriti ji’s persona has changed from being a smiple, shy girl to a strong powerful woman. She added, “Her whole persona has changed into a powerful yet humble politician. But when she started off, she was a meek, shy, simple girl who had walked into Balaji...and we knew her smile would win hearts.”
Talking about how Smriti Irani maintains a relationship with everyone, and how proud Ekta is of her, she concluded, “Recently, a colleague of hers, who hasn't worked with her, called her up for help, she immediately helped that person. That shows, even today she maintains relations with people who were working with her once. This humility and this attachment to her roots, makes her a fantastic person. So proud of you my friend! @smritiiraniofficial.”
Ekta has always been vocal about her love for her BFF, Smriti Irani. On March 10, 2020, Ekta had taken to her Instagram handle and had penned an adorable note for her bestie, Smriti Irani.
