It seems Smriti Irani likes to live life just like normal people. A photograph of her standing at the counter of Starbucks in New Delhi’s Connaught Place has gone viral.
She visited the Starbucks Cafe at N Block Connaught Place, waiting patiently in the queue and collecting her order. According to the frequent visitors, Irani is a regular customer of the outlet, and is often seen there alone, without her security personnel.
Delhi-based writer Nimish Dubey posted the photo on Facebook where he mentioned that she walked in without any security, politely placed her order, went to take it herself and then left without creating any fuss around.
Dubey told media that he has seen her visit the place often and her demeanour is the same. “Nobody came with her inside the cafe and there was nobody waiting for her outside. This is the way she always comes, on her own. She stands in the queue and doesn’t jump the queue,” he said.
Interestingly, people didn’t react. “Most people were busy murmuring, whispering, and wondering if it was Smriti Irani because she didn’t create any fuss,” added Dubey.
