Smriti Irani stands tall as a rare force who has left a lasting mark in both entertainment and politics. Few journeys reflect the range, depth, and intensity of hers. Having ruled Indian television for years with iconic performances that won millions of hearts, she made history once again with her return as Tulsi in Kyunkii 2.0. It wasn’t just a comeback, it was a moment that stunned audiences and reaffirmed her unmatched connection with popular culture.
Even today, Smriti Irani continues to show up where conversations truly matter. Whether on screen, in leadership spaces, or on global platforms, she shapes discourse with purpose and impact. Her ability to move seamlessly between entertainment and leadership remains unparalleled, allowing her to influence minds across generations while driving meaningful change.
That same vision extends far beyond television. As the Founder and Chairperson of the Alliance for Global Good – Gender Equity and Equality, Smriti Irani has taken the gender equity conversation beyond intent and discussion. The Alliance focuses on action, embedding women’s empowerment within economic systems and institutional frameworks that create long-term growth and opportunity.
At Davos 2026, Irani marked three years since the founding of the Alliance, with its work taking centre stage through the WE Lead Lounge. Following a powerful Day 1, she continued her impactful presence on Day 2 by addressing the transformative role of artificial intelligence in healthcare and also highlighted the dignity of women in health and hygiene. Smriti also met Paula Bellostas Muguerza, Global Lead for Healthcare and Life Sciences at Kearney, to discuss the changing landscape of global healthcare. Their discussion focused on how inclusive data, ethical innovation, and strong partnerships can improve women’s health and build future-ready health systems.
Glimpses from these significant engagements were later shared by her office on social media, offering a closer look at Day 2 of Smriti Irani’s influential presence at Davos 2026.

Speaking at the Intelligence for Inclusion: Transforming Women’s Health Through AI session, she stressed the need for ethical, inclusive, and evidence-based AI to improve women’s health outcomes at scale. She emphasised that dignity in women’s health and hygiene is a basic necessity, not a choice.
She highlighted that millions of women lose access to education, income, and opportunities due to poor health and hygiene facilities, calling for clear and enforceable standards to ensure dignity is upheld by systems and institutions, rather than relying on charity.
