Sameera Reddy's throwback Thursday post is a one-way ticket to the Nineties, when she featured in the music video of Pankaj Udhas' song Aur Ahista. The former actress posted a snippet of the song on Instagram and revealed that she only starred in the video because it was filmed in Australia and that she had no intention of pursuing a career in films at that time. Sameera Reddy wrote: "To where it all began... What an incredible start to my career. I only did this music video because it was shot in Australia! I had no interest in acting at the time. But destiny works in mysterious ways and I'm so emotional when I see this clip." The story of Aur Ahista was based on The Gifts Of Magi.
