Throwback video of Smriti Irani dancing with Mika Singh surfaces online; Fans react with surprise

Actress-turned-politician Smirti Irani captivated fans with her performance in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and became a household name. Her role of Tulsi is still one of the iconic characters of Indian television. However, not many know that apart from iconic TV show KSBKBT, the actress also featured in a music video with Mika Singh . The clip of the music video has resurfaced online where Smirti is seen dancing with the singer. An old music video of Union Minister Smriti Irani dancing with pop singer Mika Singh has resurfaced online, bringing back fond memories of her days in showbiz. The clip shows a younger Irani grooving alongside Mika, reminding fans of her life in entertainment before entering the world of politics. People on social media reacted to the video with surprise and warmth. Many commented on how quickly time has passed and were amazed by Smriti Irani's journey from the entertainment world to becoming a serious figure in Indian politics . Recently, at an event Smriti Irani looked back on her journey through two of the most challenging professions in India—media and politics. Speaking candidly at an event, Smriti shared how her success across both these demanding fields is not just a result of effort or talent alone but a combination of perseverance, principles, and, in her words, 'divine intervention.' 'I think I am blessed, particularly because people rarely get to have one successful career in a lifetime. I've had the opportunity to work in two of the toughest fields in this country—media and politics,' she said. Irani, who rose to fame as Tulsi Virani in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, and later went on to hold key political portfolios, believes success in such spaces demands more than just skill. In both these fields, you have to be an inherent hard worker. You need to have potential, otherwise you will never find your feet. The fact that I could compete and carve a space for myself—I think that's a great blessing." There are also reports that Ekta Kapoor has confirmed a reboot version of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Smriti Irani might return as Tulsi Virani.
