Rohit Roy recently took a trip down memory lane, sharing two pictures nearly three decades apart with acclaimed choreographer Farah Khan. The actor posted the nostalgic comparison on his Instagram, showcasing their enduring friendship and unchanged zest for life.
Choreographer And Actor’s 30-year Bond
In his heartfelt post, Roy revealed that Farah Khan had choreographed one of his earliest advertising campaigns, which was directed by Sanjiv Sharma. The actor shared both a recent picture with Farah and a throwback from the original ad shoot.
“2 pics almost 30 years apart! My dear @farahkhankunder choreographed one of my earliest ad campaigns directed by another dear friend @sanjivsharma! We have all grown for sure but haven’t lost our childlike enthusiasm for life…” Roy wrote in his caption.
The first image shows the duo in a recent setting, smiling for the camera, while the second image presents a glimpse of their much younger selves from the original advertisement shoot. Despite the decades that have passed, both still emanate the same vibrant energy and warmth.
Roy also encouraged his followers to check out the original advertisement for Tulsi Mix on YouTube, mentioning that the link was available in his Instagram story.
