Mumbai, February 14 – Actress and politician Smriti Irani emphasized the importance of self-love on Valentine's Day.
The actress, known for her role in "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi," shared that in a time when love is often measured by material possessions, it is important to appreciate the significance of a quiet and intimate relationship.
In a candid selfie posted on her Instagram account, Smriti expressed her thoughts using carefully chosen words: "In a world that measures love in decibels—in roses that promise forever, in candlelight that flickers like borrowed devotion, in greeting cards that say what the heart sometimes cannot..choose a quieter romance."
She further reflected on the importance of internal validation, rather than relying on external sources.
Smriti stated that when one is at peace with themselves, they can overcome any challenge.
"Love yourself—without the audience, without the applause. Center your soul so deeply that no storm can drag you to the ocean floor of your own despair. Become your own safe place. Your own steady pulse. Your own home. For when you find yourself— love will not feel like something to chase. It will feel like peace," she wrote.
Smriti frequently uses social media to connect with her fans, sharing glimpses of her personal and professional life.
Recently, Smriti praised actress Gauri Pradhan as the "perfect one" from the cast of "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi."
She reposted a nostalgic reunion montage from the iconic television show, initially posted by Gauri Pradhan on her social media account.
The clip showed the "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi" cast enjoying a fun dinner outing. The post, featuring Smriti, Gauri, Apara Mehta, Hiten Tejwani, Sumeet Sachdev, Tina Vohra, Komolika Guhathakurta, Sandeep Biswas, and Ashlesha Savant, was captioned, “A night to remember,” along with three red heart emojis.
