A Motivational Note from Smriti Irani
Mumbai: Smriti Irani, a prominent figure in both television and politics, recently shared an empowering message aimed at those who have faced mockery or hurtful words. She encouraged individuals to rise above negativity and prioritize their self-worth.

She connected her motivational thoughts to the song, stating, *Can I call you Rose? No… you cannot.*
In her message, she emphasized that in a society filled with self-importance, many confuse noise with influence, mistakenly believing their words can alter someone’s self-perception.
Smriti addressed those who have faced mockery or belittlement, stating that external opinions do not define one's identity.
She encouraged her followers to recognize that the urge to belittle others often stems from the insecurities of the critics themselves.
Her advice was clear: life is too precious to be burdened by others' negativity. She urged everyone to choose joy and progress.
Reflecting on the photo she shared, Smriti noted that her expression conveys understanding rather than anger or defeat, choosing not to carry the weight of negativity.
She concluded her message with a call to action: ‘Keep moving forward, quietly and unapologetically. #mondaymotivation.’
