Zeenat Aman cites the reason behind dropping this 'Laawaris' picture with Amitabh Bachchan. Know it
Mumbai/IBNS: Veteran Bollywood actor Zeenat Aman's fans almost now wait for her Instagram posts, which are always heavy with back stories that are, safe to say, mostly unknown to the audience.
In one of such posts, Zeenat Aman shared a picture with acting legend Amitabh Bachchan from the film Laawaris, which was released on this day 42 years ago.
In the post, Bachchan was seen hugging Zeenat Aman, who was wearing a jumpsuit, around the knees in a romantic scene.
Throwing more light on the picture, Zeenat Aman narrated how a jumpsuit was a thing to wear in those eras. She was also candid in stating the jumpsuit was the reason she chose this picture to drop on Instagram.
She wrote, "This still is from the song “kab ke bichhde hue hum aaj”. I had been visiting a friend in London, and flew directly to Kashmir to make it in time for this shoot. Director Prakash Mehra had been keeping unwell, but his excellent team of assistants stepped up to the plate.
"We shot the song over two-three days in some of the most stunning locations I have ever been to. Jumpsuits were all the rage back then, and this purple set was just fabulous! ( and the reason I chose this picture.)."
The veteran actor touched upon her working relationship with Bachchan with whom she could connect on "work ethic".
Zeenat Aman wrote, "Amit ji and I have had such a long working relationship, and I think part of the reason that we made a good onscreen jodi is our shared work ethic. We were both punctilious and punctual, which anyone in the industry will agree is not quite as common amongst actors as they’d like!
"I only ever recall him being late to set once in all those years, and boy is that a story to tell."
