Mumbai, December 31 (NationPress) Smriti Irani, the actress-turned-politician, shared her reflections on the significance of the year 2025, emphasizing its influence on her professional journey and her readiness to undertake daring challenges.

In a touching video, Smriti expressed her thoughts, urging everyone to prioritize living for themselves.

She stated, "As we reach the final day of the year, anticipation fills the air for what lies ahead in the new year, filled with fresh resolutions and renewed aspirations. When you reflect on 2025, what do you discover?"

Continuing, she shared, "Upon reflection, what did I uncover? I realized that the Berkeley I've heard so much about wasn't just a name; I had the incredible opportunity to teach a class there virtually. While this may not seem significant to some, it certainly was for me."

Discussing her venture into the Hindi GEC industry, Irani noted, "What else unfolded this year? People cautioned me about reaching the pinnacle of my political career and advised against looking back. However, I chose to turn towards the screen to indulge in some creative moments. Many warned me that my endeavors wouldn't bear fruit. But why should I halt out of fear of failure? I didn't let the fear of failing hold me back. I received immense respect and affection. Some remarked, 'You navigate both politics and media adeptly; you can achieve this too.'"

In her closing remarks, Smriti stated, "In 2025, I made a conscious effort to live for myself. You too can embrace 2026 for your own happiness. Time will pass, people will come and go, but ultimately, you remain with yourself. So, in 2026, regardless of the challenges, let's embrace life wholeheartedly. We will care for others, but also invest time in ourselves. Wishing you a joyous 2026!"

In her caption, Smriti expressed, "Time never halts; it merely turns the page. As the year transitions from 25 to 26, take a moment to reflect: rewind your heart, contemplate with sincerity, refresh your spirit, and redefine what no longer resonates with you."

She added, "May tomorrow arrive softly, enveloping you in tranquility, joy, comfort, and anchoring you with faith, while opening pathways to success. #happynewyear"

At the height of her political career, Smriti Irani has also made a return to television, reviving her iconic 2000 hit series Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, a show that has become a landmark in Indian entertainment.
