When Smriti Irani Was Termed As Not Fit For TV?
X
Smriti Irani shot to fame with the tele serials 'Saas-Bahu' & 'Kyunkii...Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'. Actually, Producer Ekta Kapoor preferred Smriti Irani for this serial though her Team rejected her saying she isn't fit for Television. This was a big turning point in her career & she continued her association with TV for over two decades.

At the 17th Indian Television Academy (ITA) Awards, Smriti Irani recalled: 'I had hosted ITA Awards in 2007 and that's when I invited then Information & Broadcasting Minister on stage. Now, I was invited on this stage as I&B Minister. So, Life has come a full circle for Me'.

The Union Minister had given credit for her film career to Ekta Kapoor who picked her from a bunch of young girls who attended audition despite her team rejecting her. She even clicked a selfie with the Television Queen Ekta at the ITA Awards event.
