Before entering politics, Smriti Irani was the reigning queen of Indian television for over eight years with her superhit show 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Thi'. It was Ekta who gave Smriti her big break when she was struggling to make it big in Mumbai.


Now Smriti is one of the most popular leaders of the BJP and will lock horns with Congress president Rahul Gandhi in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi constituency for the Lok Sabha Polls.


While the two leading ladies have gone far in their careers, one thing that hasn't changed between them is their friendship. Despite tests and trials, Ekta and Smriti remain the best of friends.
