Actress Sonam Khan recently took a nostalgic trip down memory lane, revisiting her time working with Prosenjit Chatterjee in the Bengali film “Mandira.”
Reflecting on her experience, she described playing the title role as truly humbling and memorable. On her Instagram, she shared a throwback image from one of the film’s dance sequences, showcasing herself in a shimmery outfit, standing back-to-back with Prosenjit, who was holding a tambourine.
For the caption, she wrote, “Here with @prosenstar We did a Bengali movie together called “Mandira” Where I was playing the title character. It was a humbling experience working on this beautiful movie… #prosenjeetchatterjee #sonamkhan #mandiramovie #throwback.”
“Mandira” is a 1990 Bengali film directed by Sujit Guha and produced by Pahlaj Nihalani. The movie featured Prosenjit Chatterjee, Indrani Haldar, and Sonam in lead roles, with Chunky Pandey, Neelam, and Pradeep Kumar in supporting roles. The film’s music was composed by the renowned Bappi Lahiri.
Being the granddaughter of actor Murad, Sonam frequently shares posts reflecting on her journey in the industry. She has previously expressed admiration for veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, calling him a talent that “still remains unmatched.”
In another post, she praised his exceptional artistry by sharing a clip from the sad version of the track “Oye Oye” from the 1989 film “Tridev.” She wrote, “Do you remember the sad version of #oyeoye… With the ever so versatile @naseeruddin49 sahaab with who I had the privilege to work with in 3 movies… #tridev #chorpemor #vishwatmamovie1992 One of the humblest actors I have ever worked with. A talent which still remains unmatched (sic).”
Sonam Khan has collaborated with Naseeruddin Shah in multiple projects, sharing screen space with him in three films, including “Chor Pe Mor” (1990) and “Vishwatma” (1992).
