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!
