For the first time, I reached the sacred spot where Maa Ganga, Yamuna Ji, and Saraswati Ji converge. As I recited mantras there, tears flowed from my eyes on their own during the prayers. What a coincidence! Exactly a year ago, on this very day, the same happened during the Pran Pratishtha ceremony in Ayodhya! Glory to Sanatan Dharma.
Anupam Kher recently completed 40 glorious years in cinema this year, and he celebrated this milestone moment of his career during the promotions of Vijay 69, a direct-to-streaming film that is garnering a lot of acclaim. Vijay 69 is currently streaming on Netflix and also stars Chunky Panday and The Archies fame Mihir Ahuja.
While Anupam is basking in the success of the film, he looked back on how he began his journey in the Hindi film industry as a struggling actor trying his best to make ends meet. Anupam visited six places in the city that are extremely dear to him because of the nostalgic value they hold for him.
He visited Casa Maria, St Paul's Road, Bal Gandharva Rang Mandir (Bandra West), Prithvi Theatre, Juhu, Kalumal Estate, Juhu, Shastri Nagar, Santacruz Linking Road Extension, and Kherwadi.
