It suddenly expresses or reveals the true nature of the character(s) through a particular word, or action or setting, etc.
Irony is the expression of a particular feeling or emotion but which signifies a completely different thing. This rhetorical device is used to express or show a feeling whose real meaning is the contrary of what was expressed.

It also sometimes lays emphasis and provide a humorous tone to the story.
Situational irony is one such type of irony where the actions of the characters differ from what is happening. The outcome of the situation is the exact opposite of what was intended.
