‘I don’t have a job’: Smriti Irani recalls asking for work after 2024 Lok Sabha poll defeat
Smriti Irani recently shared her post-2024 Lok Sabha election experience, describing it as liberating. The defeat, which she suffered to Kishori Lal Sharma in Amethi, allowed her to see life and her career differently. She mentioned reaching out to the entertainment industry, stating, "I don t have a job, can you please give me some work?"
Her former employer, Uday Shankar of JioHotstar, was the one who later helped her return to the industry. Despite initial surprise, she has since returned to the popular show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, contributing to the show's success. In addition to her acting career, Smriti remains politically active, serving as the BJP's National General Secretary in Uttar Pradesh.
