The actress has been enjoying her time on Instagram, sharing nostalgic nuggets of gold from the bygone era of Bollywood with the world.</span></p>
<p><strong>Zeenat Aman celebrates one year since she joined Instagram</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On February 11, Zeenat Aman took to </span><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/bollywood-news/photo/zeenat-aman-birthday-2023-a-look-at-the-life-of-hindi-cinema-iconic-star-in-pictures-15322/7"><strong>Instagram</strong></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to celebrate one year since her debut on the platform. The actress shared a picture of herself dressed in a stylish blazer, saying, &ldquo; People presume that transformative experiences are the prerogative of the young.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">My experience tells me otherwise.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">365 days ago my kids cajoled me into uploading my first Instagram post. That little leap of faith forced me to confront my deep tech trepidations and even deeper need for privacy. Then it gifted me a transformative year.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It showed me the possibilities of being true to myself, publicly. No agents, no managers, no bought followers - just the kids and I winging it!</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Oh, and what kids they are. If you wonder how I navigate Instagram or know the latest lingo, the answer lies with my informal little band of millennials.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There is lovely, gentle </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tanya.agarwall_/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@tanya.agarwall_</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> who photographs me with ease, thoughtful </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/_pratikshanair_/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@_pratikshanair_</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> who makes up my face exactly as I like, and quiet </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/makeupnhairbyankita/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@makeupnhairbyankita</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> who fixes my hair. Then there are </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/zanuski/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@zanuski</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/carapiranha/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@carapiranha</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> , who have held my hand every step of the way.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So, here&rsquo;s a thought from this septuagenarian - transformations demand that we embrace the unknown. And there&rsquo;s really no age limit to when you can transform your life.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Happy one-year anniversary to you and I. Please eat a slice of cake on my behalf today.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">P.S: just like my first post, this one too was shot in my garden by </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tanya.agarwall_/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">@tanya.agarwall_</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> just yesterday. The clothes are from my closet, and I did my own hair and makeup of course.&rdquo;</span></p>
<p><strong>Zeenat Aman's work front</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Zeenat Aman, who was last seen in a cameo in Panipat (2019), is returning to the screen with Faraz Arif Ansari&rsquo;s next, Bun Tikki. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">For his first feature film after the acclaimed short, Sheer Qorma (2021), the writer-director has rounded up an impressive cast &mdash; Aman, Shabana Azmi, and Abhay Deol. The movie, centred on a father and his pre-teen son, explores gender identity. A source from the creative team revealed, &ldquo;Though Bun Tikki revolves around Abhay and his on-screen son, Shabana and Zeenat form the film&rsquo;s backbone. Casting for the child is underway. When Faraz approached Zeenat, she loved the script. She always knew that if she made a comeback, it would be with a story that aligned with her ideas and beliefs. Bun Tikki was just that. She told Faraz that she had to be a part of this film as it explores many causes that she feels strongly about.&rdquo;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The project marks couturier Manish Malhotra&rsquo;s foray into production as he launches his banner Stage 5 with three movies. &ldquo;The film is far removed from the glamorous image that Manish has. But the subject resonated with him. Through his productions, he wants to support lesser-heard stories and voice."</span></p><p>
