Smriti Irani showers love on the newly weds

Actress-politician Smriti Irani has shared a loving note for her Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi co-stars Ashlesha Savant and Sandeep Baswana as the longtime couple finally formalised their relationship. Smriti took to Instagram, where she shared a stunning picture of Ashlesha and Sandeep. She then reflected on how the couple's journey began "not with rituals, but with realism", and how their bond stood on companionship and truth.

She wrote, "Some love stories take the most interesting turns. They begin not with rituals, but with realism. They promise nothing except companionship. They bring nothing to the table except the honest truth that love may ebb with time, but friendship doesn't. And from that truth begins a beautiful - albeit different - journey."

Calling the pair "different, unconventional, wonderfully their own", Smriti added: "Ashlesha and Sandeep have always been that way: different, unconventional, wonderfully their own. Madly in love, deeply in sync, and constantly driving friends like me up the wall as we kept breathing down their necks to get married."

"Well… it seems irritating idiots like me finally got their way! So happy to see them now bound by love and celebrating it through rituals."
