Smriti's Bong connection!
Not many know that Smriti Z Iraani the favourite bahu on Star Plus speaks fluent Bangla. Reason? Her mother's a Bengali! She does everything that a true blue Bengali would do during pujo- the anjali, enjoying the bhog, gorging on kheer kodmbo, watching jatra, buying new clothes, playing shidoor khela and most importantly, the mughlai parathas which she gets to eat only during the pujas .

She is so lucky to know more than Hindi and English. Normal Indian kids only know Hindi and English fluently as National and International Languages. She knows Bangla from her mother, may be her husband also speaks different language. I think she is married to a Parsi. I don't know what language, Parsis speak.
I am living in Canada since last 18 yrs. I don't know more that English, Hindi, Punjabi and Sanskrit.
