Smriti Irani's step-daughter, Shanelle Irani is engaged to Arjun Bhalla. The Union Minister poked a 'saas' joke on her future 'damaad' and it's hilarious!
Union Minister, Smriti Irani had risen to fame with her character, ‘Tulsi Virani’ in 2000 in the show, Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. She had tied the knot with Zubin Irani, who was her friend, Mona Irani’s ex-husband, in 2001. Zubin and Mona had a daughter named Shanelle and Smriti had accepted her with her whole heart and shares a warm bond with her. Apart from Shanelle, Smriti has two more children, Zohr Irani and Zoish Irani.
On December 26, 2021, Smriti Irani had taken to her IG handle to announce the engagement of her step-daughter, Shanelle Irani with Arjun Bhalla. In the pictures, Arjun could be seen sitting down on one knee as he had proposed to Shanelle in a romantic setup. In one photo, Shanelle could be seen flaunting her gleaming engagement ring. Welcoming her son-in-law, Smriti had written in the caption:
“To the man who now has our heart @arjun_bhalla welcome to our madcap family .. bless you for you have to deal with a crazy man for a father in law and worse .. me for a Saas (you have been officially warned) God bless."
