Smriti Irani has opened up about suffering a miscarriage while shooting for Kyunki Saas Bhi Bahu Thi and being asked to return to the set while still bleeding, along with other struggles she faced during her television career. In a television interview, she spoke about the difficult experiences she encountered before and after becoming a mother.
Irani has recently been appointed as a national general secretary in the BJP’s new organisational setup, with responsibility for Uttar Pradesh. The new role brings Irani back into the BJP’s national setup after a period away from the central organisational structure. Her political career has remained closely associated with Uttar Pradesh, particularly Amethi, where she defeated Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in 2019 before losing the seat in the 2024 election.
