NEW DELHI: Union Textiles Minister Smriti Irani recently made her debut on Instagram and has since been sharing a number of posts. Among all her lovely pictures is one that actor Shah Rukh Khan has recently re-posted on his own Instagram account. Before you start wondering what's the connection between the actor-turned-politician and Bollywood's Badshah, let us tell you. The post shared by SRK shows a picture of Shanelle Irani, Smriti Irani's husband Zubin Irani's daughter from his previous marriage. Turns out Shah Rukh and Mr Irani are childhood friends and it was none other than SRK who named his daughter Shanelle.
"My childhood friend Zubin's daughter all grown up and so pretty... and just for the record I named her Shanelle," says Shah Rukh on Instagram. His post has collected over 2.2 lakh likes in some 21 hours.
In her post, the textiles minister wrote "#familyphoto someone is being missed sorely" while posting the photo on Instagram.
Along with all the 'likes', the little anecdote shared by Shah Rukh on his post has received lots of comments, one of which is by Shanelle herself.
