Ektaa Kapoor, who celebrates her 50th birthday today (June 7), received a heartfelt message from her longtime friend, Smriti Irani. Marking the special occasion, Smriti took to Instagram to pen an emotional note dedicated to Ektaa, the creative force behind the iconic show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.
Wishing her a happy birthday, Smriti penned a long note and note, "That night, we walked —from the quiet lanes of Juhu to the sacred steps of Siddhivinayak. Not in celebration, but in surrender. She had made a silent vow when I was chasing a dream — a prayer not for herself, but for me. And when the dream turned real, when the world clapped — she didn’t call to revel in the applause. She reminded me: We owe Bappa our thanks. Gratitude walks before pride in her world."
Praising Ektaa and her hard work, Smriti further wrote, "The world knows her as fierce - a woman of will, words, and unwavering resolve. But I have known her silences; the softness that doesn’t seek attention, the care that doesn’t need credit. She is the quiet strength behind many journeys, the keeper of promises no one else hears. Today, she turns 50. A milestone many will raise a toast to. But in the hush of this day, I whisper a prayer — May peace wrap itself around her like a shawl on a weary evening. May success find her, not because she chases it, but because she gives so much of herself away. She deserves both. And so much more. Happy Birthday EK."
Ektaa and Smriti have been close friends for many years. They have always supported each other and have a strong bond with each other’s families. Smriti enjoys spending time with Ekta’s son Ravie and often brings him books. In the same way, Ekta is very loving towards Smriti’s kids.
For those who may not know, Smriti Irani's most iconic and longest-running show, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, was produced by Ektaa Kapoor. Smriti played the role of Tulsi Virani, a character that became a household name across the country. The two are now teaming up again for a brand-new season of the iconic show.
