In Hema Malini's Rare Throwback Post, A Pic From Sholay. Can You Identify The Other Person?

New Delhi: No, it's not Thursday yet. But we guess veteran actress Hema Malini didn't want to wait till Thursday to post this epic picture from the sets of her 1975 epic film Sholay. The post is rare as Hema Malini doesn't really post throwback pictures on Instagram. (It was sent to her by a fan). In the picture, Hema Malini shares the frame with Sholay director Ramesh Sippy, who is explaining a particular scene to her. "Sholay remains one of my favourite for many reasons. Sharing a photo shared by my fan, where director Ramesh Sippy is explaining me the scene. And you can clearly see those pages in my hand. I had to rattle off four pages of Basanti dialogues. This is the scene just before that tanga chase scene by Gabbar goons," Hema Malini, 69, explained.

The picture has made the Internet very happy and comments like "it's a legendary picture" and "memorable" have been posted.

Here's the picture.
