Mumbai: First films always hold a special place in an actor’s heart, no matter where their career takes them. In a recent Instagram post, Twinkle Khanna reminisced about Barsaat, the film that introduced her to the world of lights, camera, and action.
On the 30th anniversary of Barsaat, Twinkle shared a playful throwback with co-star Bobby Deol, whose recent performance in Animal has made him a sought-after actor once again.
“Hard to believe it’s been thirty years and we’re still here doing our thing. @iambobbydeol just sent me this picture from our Barsaat days. I suppose disappearing gracefully was never our style #30YearsOfBarsaat,” she wrote, drawing heartfelt reactions from fans and colleagues alike.
Bobby, son of legendary Dharmendra and Prakash Kaur, responded with a string of heart emojis in the comments. Fans also chimed in, one simply writing, “Amazing.”
Released in 1995 and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, Barsaat marked the acting debut of both Bobby and Twinkle. While Bobby went on to enjoy a successful film career, Twinkle stepped away from acting in 2001.
Born to golden-era superstar Rajesh Khanna and iconic actress Dimple Kapadia, Twinkle may not have pursued a long acting career, but she has made a significant impact as an author, with bestselling books like Mrs Funnybones, The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad, and Pyjamas Are Forgiving.
She is currently co-hosting the talk show Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle on Prime Video.
