Honey Irani is an Indian actress and screenwriter, who works in Hindi cinema.

She started her career as a child actor with roles in films such as Mahesh Kaul’s Pyar ki Pyas.

Irani's oldest sister, Menaka, was married to the stunt film-maker Kamran Khan.

Irani met the script-writer and poet Javed Akhtar on the sets of Seeta Aur Geeta.

Irani became a devoted home-maker, but the marriage ended in divorce after her husband became involved with the actress Shabana Azmi in the mid-1970s.

Yash had also previously asked her to develop a story idea, which went on to become her debut as a screenwriter, Lamhe (1991), starring Sridevi.
