Union Minister Smriti Irani Gets Emotional Visiting Her Home After 35 Years

Balaji Telefilms producer and Ekta Kapoor roped in Union Minister of Textiles Smriti Irani as a part of her promotions for her new web series Home. The series streams on Balaji’s digital platform ALTBalaji. Ekta shared three emotional videos of Smriti from her visit to her first home in Gurugram where she used to live 35 years ago. The videos are heartwarming as well as heartbreaking as Smriti visibly breaks down remembering her childhood home.

The videos show Smriti walking up to the society and meeting the residents, some of whom were her acquaintances. However, what really tears her up is the fact that her old home has been converted into a shop. She keeps saying, “Mujhe laga ghar hoga,” and gets emotional and eventually bursts into tears.

Let's take a tour of Smriti Irani's old home.

HOME is not just made up of four walls, but it is love and family that make a house, a HOME! Watch the emotional journey of @smritiirani as she revisits her childhood home and for the first time shares her #MyHOME story with us @altbalaji https://t.co/ZiMCfsdNu2

Smriti Irani also tweeted about it.

For sure @ektaravikapoor 😊 Rewinding time and walking down memory lane- quite literally. HOME se Mumbai tak samay badla, ghar bhi badle. But relationships and memories have stayed strong. https://t.co/TAJZChnJII
