Actress-turned-politician Smriti Irani might not be seen in a daily, but she loves to share interesting moment from her glamorous lifestyle in the past. From being a model to actress, Smriti is still fondly known as Tulsi from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.
But much before this daily happened, Smriti shared a glimpse from her TVC, which was about a sanitary pad company. Sharing the video, Smriti wrote about breaking taboo 25 years back. She wrote, “When your past ‘whispers’ ….25 years ago, my first ad ever for a big company . However, the subject was not a fancy one. Infact such was the product that many were averse to the assignment since a sanitary pad advertisement ensured the death of a glamour based career for the model involved . Eager to start my stint in front of the camera I said yes ! After all why should a conversation re menstrual hygiene be taboo. Since then there has been ‘ no looking back ‘ #throwbackthursday”

Smriti, who is known for her witty remarks and captions, did made it a point mention how thin she look and added that no one needs to remind her that. She added in the caption, “yes I was thin ..ye yaad dilaane ki zaroorat nahi.”
Mouni Roy, Aashka Goradia and several others commented on the video. Fans kept praising her looks and wrote how she was brave to take up a menstrual hygiene ad. A user wrote, “Bold Step for Menstrual Hygiene of Indian Women.” Another wrote, “Unique and Powerful then, now and always… Ma’am You are an inspiration.”
She often gives a glimpse from her modeling days and posts them on social media. Smriti was one of the contestants in Miss India 1998.
