Built over decades, their friendship is rooted in companionship, trust and shared experiences through different stages of life.

Three stars, a shared legacy

Asha Parekh emerged as one of Hindi cinema’s leading stars during the 1960s and 1970s, delivering memorable performances in films such as Dil Deke Dekho, Teesri Manzil and Kati Patang.
