Are you telling me it's been 23 years of #JaaniDushman?? Nothing can beat #Matrix sequence. Not even Keanu Reeves Epicness Reloaded! PS: Don't miss #ArmaanKohli's lenses with red outline 👀

#SalmanKhan was most well kept secret in #KuchKuchHotaHai Time of no social media, spoilers & promotions didn't reveal entire plot! What's your memory seeing SK suddenly onscreen? DYK -- KJo couldn't initially "afford" him but SK said he wanted to do it for whatever money Karan gave him. And he did, and blew up the movie!

DYK -- #PankajDheer was 1st choice to play Arjun, & not Karna in #Mahabharat But he refused to shave his moustache for Arjun's sequence as eunuch Brihanalla. He thought he wouldn't look good without mush! #BRChopra rejected him, but later called him again, this time for Karna! Dheer immortalised Karna for an entire generation. A part of our memories fade today RIP 🙏

#AshutoshGowariker played an NRI - Mohan in episode America Return (Vapasi) of #ZeeTV anthology #YuleLoveStories (1993-94). He comes to meet his Kaveri Amma (late Kishori Ballal herself) Do you think this inspired him to make #Swades (2004)? #ShahRuhKhan Here's an edited clip 👇

#AkshayeKhanna - the underrated dancer! Who all remember Baby Don't Break My Heart from #Mohabbat (1997)? It was sampled from "Larl Larl Boleeyan" (1994), song by Taz (Stereo Nation) Have you heard the original too?

DYK -- #PankajTripathi got 8K for his uncredited role in #Run He was dragged from his NSD hostel on a Sunday noon, to the set at Pragati Maidan due to a crisis. Later he couldn't even be in Mumbai to dub #Sridevi, who was the producer signed his cheque. He still has it as memory Run turns 20! And its #KauwaBiryani sequence remains one of the best laugh riots in Bollywood. Agree? #VijayRaaz

DYK -- #TataYoung couldn't pronounce #DhoomMachale The Thai singer just couldn't say "ध" #Pritam tried really hard. They finally went with her "Doom doom" & guess that became its high point! What a banger this song is even after #20YearsOfDhoom 🔥 #Dhoom

#RaghavJuyal was 18 when I first saw him in Dance India Dance He called himself "crockroaxz" as his dance style was inspired by crocodile + cockroach. I'll always remember his mastery at footwork. NOBODY can do slo-mo like him Now he's rocking #TheBadsOfBollywood. What a journey!

We might get dozens of patriotic songs, but #MileSurMeraTumhara will always remain an emotion ❤️ Composed by Pt Bhimsen Joshi, the national integration song was first telecast on #IndependenceDay 1988. Do you rem it? Had to shorten the original video to fit. गुस्ताख़ी माफ़ 🙏

#GolMaal is a cult classic, a gem for reasons more than one... Perfect story, casting, performances & direction. #HrishikeshMukherjee's comedy-of-errors is a masterclass We can never pick who's better here - #UtpalDutt or #AmolPalekar, or his kurta! 😂 What are your thoughts? ----- Gol Maal was remade in: Tamil - Thillu Mullu (1981) Kannada - Aasegobba Meesegobba (1990) Malayalam - Simhavalan Menon (1995) Sinhala - Rasa Rahasak (1988) Bol Bachchan (2012) was also inspired from Gol Maal

Remember #JaagoRe ad featuring #PankajTripathi? 👇 In 2000s when coffee was trendy & tea was for mid-age, #TataTea targeted to reverse it & position tea drinkers as young & cool! These ads focussed on social awakening (elections) with tea "waking up" people, more philosophically
