While the young actors are working hard to keep up with the demands of social media, this year has witnessed a bunch of yesteryear actors winning at this game. Their posts, which often are laced with nostalgia or wise words, have struck a chord with social media users across ages.
Zeenat Aman
Zeenat Aman joined the Insta world pretty late, but in no time she took the social media world by storm.
Her posts, which include a mix of her present learnings, past experiences, and nostalgic anecdotes, had people on social media hooked. A not-so-novice Instagrammer anymore, she ensures that her glam pictures are accompanied by well-written captions and notes. The actress uses her handle almost like her memoir and that is what grabs everyone’s attention.
Dharmendra
Dharmendra stays true to his username – Aapka Dharam – and shares personal thoughts, moments, and his life’s philosophy. Whether he is sending a message to his daughter via social media or showing his fans pictures of him farming in America – he keeps it candid and real. Maybe that is the reason his fans love engaging with him on this platform.
Saira Banu
Saira Banu’s Instagram feed is like a diary of her life and times with her husband, legendary actor
Dilip Kumar
. Her bio reads, ‘Hindustan ke ‘KOHINOOR’ Dilip Sahib ke liye hamari zindagi ke andekhay aur ansunay kissey’. From rare, unseen pictures to beautiful anecdotes, Saira Banu’s posts have that wonderful old-world charm that makes it such a compelling read.
Hema Malini
When Hema Malini decided to hop on the metro to beat the traffic, she shared her experience with her followers. This, and many more such candid moments, right from her time with family to the festivities at home - give a glimpse of her life beyond her work.
Mumtaz
Recently, Mumtaz’s video dancing with legendary singer
Asha Bhosle
made headlines. The actress danced gracefully to the song Koi Shehri Babu from the film Loafer (1972). This isn’t the first time a post by Mumtaz has gone viral. From her workout videos to the time she spends with other celebs, she’s lately been sharing interesting aspects of her life on insta.
