Anupam wrote, “Today is my birthday! The 70th! The man who played a 65-year-old role in movies at 28 years old, and then mostly played characters older than his age. Her youth has begun now! How old is just a number, I am the perfect example for it. Please send me your wishes and blessings! Haridwar came with Maa, friends and family members! If this time birthday is special, then it will be full Sanatani! Hail Mother Gange! Har Har Mahadev! #HappyBirthdayToMe.”
