Shabana Azmi went down the memory lane sharing a throwback picture with Dharmendra

In the midst of a scorching July, Bollywood witnessed respite as one film captivated hearts and enthralled minds- "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani".

The film unfurls an unconventional romance, and the magnetic chemistry between the lead protagonists, portrayed flawlessly by Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt, forms the heart and soul of this enchanting narrative. Yet, the film's allure doesn't stop, it is also brought to life by none other than the legendary Dharmendra and the incomparable Shabana Azmi.

Shabana Azmi, in a heartwarming gesture, shared a rare and cherished memory on her official Instagram handle. A throwback snapshot from the sets of the 1988 classic "Mardon Wali Baat," captured Shabana Azmi and Dharmendra in a candid moment of camaraderie. This delightful reminiscence resurfaced in the wake of a viral sensation – the poignant on-screen kiss shared in the film.

In a caption brimming with nostalgia, Shabanaji playfully remarked, "At the time Jamini from Rocky Aur Rani must have met Kanwalji! From Mardon Wali Baat #KaranJohar." Their on-screen reunion mirrors the tender rendezvous of former lovers in the twilight of life, casting a bittersweet spell on audiences.

A comment on Shabana Azmi's post suggests that the photo should have been used in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. "This pic should have been used in the movie. What a good-looking and graceful pair." Well, we can't agree more on it.

The mastermind behind this film, Karan Johar, rekindled his directorial flame after a hiatus of seven years, infusing "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani" with his signature storytelling finesse.
