What a star-studded way to celebrate! On Shabana Azmi’s 75th birthday bash in Mumbai, Bollywood’s timeless icons Rekha, Madhuri Dixit Nene, Vidya Balan, and Urmila Matondkar lit up the dance floor with the catchy track “Kaisi Paheli Zindgani” from the 2005 film Parineeta. The evening turned into a fun throwback to classic Bollywood moments, and fans can’t stop talking about it.
Actor Sanjay Kapoor, who joined the party as a guest, captured the magic on Instagram. He shared a lively video of the “OG queens of Bollywood” grooving to the song—starting with Rekha leading the way, then Shabana Azmi jumping in to dance alongside Madhuri, Vidya, and Urmila. Sanjay’s caption nailed the vibe: “Happy birthday @azmishabana18, What a fabulous evening. The OG Queens of Bollywood #rekha @madhuridixitnene @urmilamatondkarofficial @balanvidya.”
For those who love Bollywood classics, “Kaisi Paheli Zindgani” is a fan favorite from Parineeta, originally picturized on Rekha. Sunidhi Chauhan’s powerful vocals and Shantanu Moitra’s soulful music make it unforgettable. The film itself just hit its 20-year milestone in Hindi cinema. Directed by debutant Pradeep Sarkar, Parineeta adapts Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s 1914 Bengali novella and stars Vidya Balan, Sanjay Dutt, Saif Ali Khan, Raima Sen, Dia Mirza, and Sabyasachi Chakraborty. It’s packed with nods to Indian literature and cinema.
The story? It’s a heartfelt tale of childhood friends Lalita and Shekhar, whose bond turns into romance. But drama hits with misunderstandings and Shekhar’s scheming father pulling them apart. Enter Girish, who helps Lalita’s family, adding more twists. In the end, true love wins as Shekhar stands up to his dad’s greed and reunites with Lalita. No wonder Parineeta remains a go-to for Bollywood romance fans.
Shifting gears to the stars’ recent gigs—Shabana Azmi shone in the 2023 sports drama Ghoomer, directed by R. Balki. She shared the screen with Abhishek Bachchan, Saiyami Kher, and Angad Bedi, earning praise for her powerful performance.
Sanjay Kapoor, meanwhile, just dropped in the romantic comedy Param Sundari, helmed by Tushar Jalota. The flick stars Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra as Param, a Delhi guy hunting for love via an AI app, only to match with Sundari, a Kerala girl. It’s a fresh take on modern romance with plenty of laughs.
This birthday celebration proves Bollywood’s legends never fade—here’s to more such joyful nights!
