Smriti Irani's ROFL Reaction To Ekta Kapoor's Throwback Pic

Just when we thought Smriti Irani couldn't get any funnier, she proved us wrong. The Union Minister once again occupied a spot on the list of trends, courtesy her ROFL comment on her producer friend Ekta Kapoor's post. On Monday, Ekta Kapoor made a trip down memory lane and shared a few throwback pictures featuring herself, Smriti Irani and ZEE5 CEO Tarun Katial. The "then and now" photos appear to be from an event held in the late Eighties or early Nineties. Sharing the photos, Ekta Kapoor wrote in the caption: "Three of us! What a throwback #tarunkatyal @smritiiraniofficial and me! #thenandnow."

Minutes after Ekta Kapoor posted the album, Smriti Irani, who is best-known for playing Tulsi Virani in Ekta's Kyunkii...Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, hilariously commented: "Patle hua karte the kuch log."

Your Mom and I sat in silence a year ago waiting for you to come home ( for a chatter box she was quiet & composed ) , your Masa freaks out that you are around 2 strong headed women & hopes we don't make a rabble rousing feminist out of you ; before anyone at @balajitelefilmslimited or @altbalaji could hand you a script or an edit tool I made sure you got a doctor's set to play with. Your Nana Nani Mama & brother adore you. I refuse to respond to the name Ravioli ( he is a dish for sure but no way will someone make Ravioli his call sign) you are loved Ravie Kapoor happy birthday god bless @ektaravikapoor
