In an yet another interview, Smriti Irani had shared, "I have been associated with TV for over 20 years now. Television gave me a platform to enter Indian political space and I will be forever grateful for that. Also, Ekta Kapoor spotted me among the many young girls who had come for audition and selected me despite her team having rejected me as not fit for TV." She had further added, “In 2007, when I was the anchor at the ITA Awards, I had invited the then Information and Broadcasting Minister on stage. So life has come a full circle for me to be invited on this stage as the serving Information and Broadcasting Minister.”

At the 2017 ITA Awards, Ekta Kapoor had bagged the ITA Sterling Icon award. Therein, she had recalled a fond memory of Smriti Irani and had stated, “There is one episode relating to Smriti Irani which I have to narrate. I used to call my nanny ‘Amma’ and she was so hooked to Smriti’s character that every night, she would narrate the happenings from the show to me. So once I took her on the sets to meet Smriti and Smriti bowed down and touched her feet. That image of Smriti will remain with me forever.”
