Ekta Kapoor’s 50th birthday has brought back a flood of memories for Smriti Irani, who played the iconic character of Tulsi in Kapoor’s hit TV show “Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi”. Irani took to social media to share a heartfelt note, reminiscing about the old days and the journey she shared with Kapoor.
In her post, Irani recalled a particular night when she and Kapoor walked from the quiet streets of Juhu to the sacred steps of Siddhivinayak Temple, not for celebration, but for a moment of surrender. Irani remembered how Kapoor had taken a silent vow for her when she was chasing her dreams, and when those dreams came true, Kapoor didn’t call to bask in the applause, but instead reminded Irani to thank God.
Irani described Kapoor as a woman of strong will, but also someone who has a soft and caring side that often goes unnoticed. She called Kapoor the “silent power” behind many journeys and the one who fulfills promises that others may not even hear. As Kapoor turns 50, Irani prayed that she be enveloped in silence like a shawl on a tired evening, and that success continue to follow her, not because she chases it, but because she gives so much of herself.
The news of Kapoor’s birthday has also sparked excitement among fans, who are eagerly awaiting the return of “Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2”, which is currently in production. The show, which originally ran for many years, is set to make a comeback with Irani reprising her role as Tulsi.
