Mumbai, Aug 13 Bollywood star Sidharth Malhotra seems to be in awe of yesteryear diva Zeenat Aman as he thanked the actress for making the 1970s cool with her “style, panache and performances”.
Zeenat had reposted a video by Sidharth, where at a fashion event he went up to the actress while walking the ramp as a showstopper and gave a gentleman-like flying kiss.
The actress said it was lovely to meet the “Shershaah” actor.
The Bollywood heartthrob re-shared the post and wrote: “A pleasure meeting you. Zeenat ma'am Have grown up admiring your iconic work. Thank you for making the 70s so cool -your style, panache and performances are unmatched ! You are truly an inspiration.”
Apart from being an actress, Zeenat is a former beauty queen. She started her acting career in 1970 with films such as “The Evil Within”, “Hulchul”, “Hare Rama Hare Krishna”, “Roti Kapada Aur Makaan”, “Warrant”, “Hum Kisise Kum Naheen”, “The Great Gambler”, “Laawaris” and “Sallu Ki Shaadi” to name a few.
Talking about Sidharth, his film “Shershaah”, has clocked three years in Hindi cinema and in a conversation with IANS, the actor said: “‘Shershaah’ is a special film for me. This was my first film that received a National Award.”
The 39-year-old actor played the real-life hero Captain Vikram Batra, killed in action in the Kargil War, in the film.
“The process of getting into the character of Captain Vikram Batra was exhilarating and rewarding. Very rarely do you come across films that continue to give unabashed love even after a year, and 'Shershaah' is undoubtedly one of them.”
"The impact that resonated across the globe and the hearts that still beat with it. I am grateful and proud to have told this story,” he shared.
