In today’s episode, we have Smriti Irani, an actor and politician. She talks about what it means to come from a middle-class background, the need to prove your worth, and how early experiences shaped her approach to power and responsibility. From being underestimated as an actor to being criticised as a politician, she shares how detachment and analysis have helped her stay focused.

We discuss how working-class conditioning affects confidence, why people struggle with powerful women, and what makes political leadership different from public image. Smriti also shares personal moments from returning to work days after childbirth and a miscarriage, to giving a parliament session after a family emergency, and how she separates emotional impact from public responsibility.

In the final segment, she opens up about her relationship with ambition, how her upbringing taught her to stay grounded, and what it’s really like working alongside leaders like PM Modi. She talks about insecurity, public expectation, and why she is returning to acting after years in politics.
