Mumbai: Actress Manisha Koirala took a trip down memory lane and recalled her 1996 film ‘Khamoshi: The Musical’ after Bollywood star Salman Khan attended the premiere of her upcoming series ‘Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar’.
Manisha took to Instagram and re-shared a post from her fan club featuring a picture of herself and Salman from the film, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and a photograph of the ‘Dabangg’ actor from the premiere.
The picture was captioned: “Heeramandi, Khamoshi. Raj at Annie’s screening. 1996 and 2024.”
‘Khamoshi: The Musical’ was a romantic drama film, which also stars Nana Patekar and Seema Biswas. Touted as one of the best in Hindi cinema, the film follows the story of Annie, a hearing and speech-impaired couple’s daughter, who meets Raj, bringing music and love into her life.
