Claim: A photo of Union Minister, Smriti Irani dressed as a belly dancer.
Fact-check: An edited photo is being shared as Smriti Irani in a belly dancer attire - FACTLY
Verdict: this is an edited photo. the original photo is found in the photo gallery of exelsior hotel on tripadvisor's website. while the original photo is in colour and the face of the woman in the image is different, the one being shared is a black-and-white image with the dancer's face edited with smriti irani's face. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
