Ekta Kapoor wants to work with Smriti Irani again

Smriti Irani with Ekta Kapoor

TV tzarina Ekta Kapoor, who made actress-turned-politician Smriti Irani into a household name through the role of Tulsi in popular TV show 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi', says she would love to work with her again.

Smriti Irani, who is now Union Minister of Textiles, was last seen on TV in shows like 'Maniben.com' and 'Yeh Hai Jalwaa'. "You want me to bring back the Textiles Minister into acting? I would love it. I asked Smriti to do at least one appearance. She said, she would do it, but people will say something or the other. People will start talking. I am happy where I am." Ekta Kapoor said here on Wednesday during promotion of her new show 'Kundali Bhagya'.

"Smriti Irani came to my office last month. The whole office ran to meet her. As a friend, I hope her career goes really high because till the last day of her pregnancy she did shooting. Nobody knows this, but she shot on the day of her marriage. We made her work because she knew that the show won't go on air as nobody wanted to see 'Kyunki...' without Tulsi," she added.
