The divas of Bollywood had a rather delightful time at Shabana Azmi’s 75th birthday celebrations. Icons like Rekha, Urmila Matondkar, Farah Khan, Vidya Balan, Manish Malhotra, and Madhuri Dixit were in attendance and wowed the Internet with their moves.
Sharing a clip from the lavish affair, designer Manish Malhotra shared a clip of the actresses grooving to the Parineeta song ‘Kaisi Paheli’. As the birthday girl, Shaban Azmi, joined the group, they danced along with the heroine of the original song, Rekha. Wearing a timeless headwrap, Rekha stood out with her quirky fashion. While Madhuri sported a red power outfit, Balan was in a gray A-line dress. Matondkar flaunted a festive brocade piece.
Several other stars, such as Vikrant Massey, Karan Johar, Arjun Kapoor, and Maheep Kapoor, were spotted too. Sharing a selfie with the birthday girl, Manish Malhotra wished Shabana Azmi on her big day. In the post he wrote, “When there is so much love in the air, you know she is Special and Everyone loves and respects her.” Praising her, he added, “from your personality, to your sparkling eyes, to your energy and zest for life, and to your incredible work in cinema across the globe…everything about you is fabulous.”
The Internet was absolutely loving this moment. Resharing the video of the actresses dancing, a page of Instagram captioned “How I imaging my life with my girls when we grow old.” Another wrote, “The eternal icons reminding us why they’ll always be the OGs.” “Five eras of grace, talent, and timeless beauty in one frame,” came another post.
