She added, “On this very day, I can’t help but reflect on the year 1966 when we first crossed paths on the sets of Diwana. It was there that I had the pleasure of being introduced to you by the legendary Raj Kapoorji, and ever since that moment, I’ve held a profound affection for you, both as an artist and as a person. The exemplary life you have led is nothing short of inspiring. I absolutely adore you for the consistent warmth and kindness you’ve extended to me over the years, be it through our meetings or the continuous flow of heartfelt messages. Sending you lots of warmth and wishes.”
