With all due respect to Sunny paaji, Meenakshi Seshadri is a classically trained Bharatnatyam dancer. I think the joke is on him this time! 😉 Great to see her active and enjoying life in the US.

This brings back so many memories. Damini was such a powerful film. Sunny Deol's "Tarikh pe tarikh" and Meenakshi's performance... iconic! Good to know they are still in touch.

It's heartwarming to see such positive interactions between veteran actors. The industry today could learn a thing or two about lasting professional friendships from them.

Respectfully, while the banter is fun, the article feels a bit thin. It's basically about an Instagram comment. Wish there was more substance or maybe an update on if they plan to work together again.

Meenakshi Seshadri was grace personified. Her dance in 'Hero' is legendary! Sunny Deol can keep his dhai kilo ka haath, but the dance floor belongs to her. 😂 Jokes aside, lovely to see her milestone!
