Veteran actress Kishori Shahane has delighted fans by recreating an iconic scene from Sridevi’s classic film ‘Chaalbaaz’ for a new social media reel inspired by her current television show ‘Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye’ (KMTMG).
The actress shared the recreation on her Instagram account, showing a scene that appears to be from the set of her Zee TV show. In the video, Kishori can be seen channeling Sridevi’s memorable performance as Rohini Hattangadi’s character looks on, mirroring the dynamic from the original film.
“Scene from Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye … really inspired us to make this reel,” Kishori captioned the post, tagging Zee TV and co-star Akanksha Khanna. She also included hashtags referencing both her show and Sridevi’s ‘Chaalbaaz’.
Behind The Tribute
The reel shows Kishori’s appreciation for Sridevi’s legendary acting skills while incorporating elements from her current television role. The recreation appears to blend nostalgia with contemporary television storytelling, bringing a classic Bollywood moment to today’s audience.
In the original ‘Chaalbaaz’ film released in 1989, Sridevi delivered a dual role performance that is still considered one of her finest works. The film, directed by Pankaj Parashar, featured Sridevi alongside Rajinikanth and Sunny Deol.
Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye Milestone
Kishori’s tribute comes during a celebratory period for the show. Just days before this post, she shared that ‘Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye’ had completed 500 episodes – a significant milestone for any television series.
“Happy 500 episodes… Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye.. Many memories, so many relations, so much love from everyone… I love each and everyone I met in my #kmtmg journey… Thankyou God for making me a part of this wonderful show,” she wrote in her celebratory post.
The show features a talented ensemble cast including Sriti Jha, Arjit Aneja, Hemangi Kavi, and others, all of whom Kishori tagged in her milestone celebration post.
The Sridevi tribute follows Kishori’s recent birthday celebrations, which she shared on social media. In a post captioned “Celebrating my birthday in full josh…”, the actress was seen enjoying her special day surrounded by castmates including Jassi K, Arjit Aneja, Hemangi Kavi, and other co-stars from the show.
Her son also posted a heartfelt birthday message, writing, “Happy Birthday to the woman who does it all—with grace, grit, and a killer to-do list. Love you, Mom!”
