Mumbai: Bollywood actor Sidharth Malhotra, in a heartfelt expression, conveyed his deep admiration and gratitude to Zeenat Aman, the 1970s diva, for her ‘style, panache, and performances,’ a clear indication of the immense respect he holds for the legendary actress.
Recently, yesteryear Hindi cinema actress Zeenat posted a video by Bollywood actor Siddharth Malhotra where, at a fashion event, he went up to the veteran 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, ” It was a pleasure meeting you, Zeenat ma’am. I 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.”
Zeenat is not just an actress but also a former beauty queen. In 1970, she made her acting debut in a number of movies, including “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.”

Talking about Sidharth, his film “Shershaah” has clocked three years in Hindi cinema. 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 Captain Vikram Batra, a real-life hero who was 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.
