In 2019, Smriti Irani had posted a selfie with Zoish Irani but later deleted it because her daughter had pleaded her to do so. Revealing the reason why Zoish asked Smriti to delete the picture, the 44-year-old mom had written, “I deleted my daughter’s selfie yesterday coz an idiot bully in her class ,A Jha ,mocks her for her looks & tells his pals in class to humiliate her for how she looks in her mother’s insta post. My child pleaded with me ‘ Ma please delete it, they are making fun of me’. I obliged coz I could not stand her tears.”
But Smriti Irani then realised that by deleting the picture, she is encouraging the bullies to continue their shameful practice. Listing her daughter’s accomplishments and challenging the bullies, Smriti had continued, “Then I realised my act just supported the bully . So Mr Jha , my daughter is an accomplished sports person, record holder in Limca Books, 2 Nd Dan black belt in Karate, at the World Championships has been awarded bronze medal twice; is a loving daughter and yes damn beautiful. Bully her all you want , she will fight back.
