Soni Razdan’s Mandi outfit looked a lot like Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai, says Soni.
Soni Razdan has given her daughter Alia Bhatt not only her acting skills but also her beautiful looks. A video clip from Soni’s 1983 movie Mandi shows that Alia’s performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi is a lot like what Soni did in Mandi. When a spectator posted the video on Twitter, other people agreed that Alia looked a lot like Soni from Gangubai Kathiawadi.
“In the late 1970s, @Soni Razdan played a sex worker in # Mandi, and now @aliaa08 plays a sex worker in # GangubaiKathiawadi,” a fan wrote on Twitter. Both are excellent actresses with many similarities. Soni looked then like Alia does now. “
“Oh my gosh, what a blast from the past!” Soni said, along with a blushing emoji and a heart emoji, in response to the video.
Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, Neena Gupta, Ila Arun, Naseeruddin Shah, Amrish Puri, Pankaj Kapur, Om Puri, Satish Kaushik, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, and others were among the cast members of Mandi. Shyam Benegal was in charge of making the movie Mandi, which was based on the short novel Aanandi by Ghulam Abbas. The story was about a brothel in the middle of a city that was wanted for a different reason by some politicians.
In Gangubai Kathiawadi, Alia played the title role of a brothel owner and politician. Alia’s performance in the movie, which was directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, got good reviews.
“Dear Soni, we are also celebrating here.” We are playing the dholak and singing bride-groom songs. “Congratulations to you and your family from Neena Gupta and me. “
