Union Cabinet Minister Smriti Irani’s Instagram has all the makings of a legit memelord’s page.

Don’t believe us?

Check this out then.

ICYMI, this is a take on sanskari namkaran memes that surfaced recently after UP CM Yogi Adityanath went ahead and changed ‘Allahabad’ to ‘Prayagraj’. And yes this is Irani herself reposting the joke with the caption “when the joke is on you”.

If you just did a double take to find a Yogi Adityanath meme on Union Minister Smriti Irani’s Insta feed, let's tell you, we did the same.

In fact, we thought it was a parody account for a good half an hour and even Instagram’s ‘Blue Tick’ couldn't convince us initially.

When Your Official Profile Beats Any Parody In the Market

After all, who would have thought that the Union Cabinet Minister for Textiles and former I&B Minister was actually so rad? For example, here she subtly hints at how ‘news coverage’ of her has changed since she became a minister.

#tbt to times when being in the news was not a headache”, she says.

Don’t miss the smooth use of Internet lingo, acronyms and hashtags in the captions.

The Trick Is To Be Relatable

One look at her feed and you know that she doesn't take herself too seriously on Instagram and that is exactly what makes her Insta feed so bingable.

Her Everyday Meme Game is Also on Point

TIP: Read The Captions!

And watch her slay it with wit and sass.

See what she did there?

She Hates The Working On Weekends

...and we couldn’t agree more.

But She Hates Mondays Even More...

We feel you, Smriti Ji.
