Mumbai, Nov 14 (SocialNews.XYZ) On the occasion of Children's Day on Thursday, actress and politician Urmila Matondkar shared a string of her childhood pictures. She also said that each kid in India is indebted to the timeless almost ethereal song “Lakdi Ki Kathi” by renowned lyricist Gulzar.
Urmila took Instagram, where she shared a reel video featuring all her childhood pictures. Some even featured actors Naseeruddin Shah and Rekha. The last was Urmila all grown up posing with Gulzar.
She wrote: “Keep the child inside you alive, safe n blessed always!! Well easier said than done na..
Here are my few tips for it. Be less judgmental… Love without fear… Embrace your own vulnerability n protect it…And above all love n forgive yourself… #happychidernsday folks”
“PS- Don’t miss the last n most precious picture with the man to whom each child in India is indebted to for this timeless almost ethereal song.. Gulzarsaab.”
The song "Lakdi Ki Kathi" is from the 1983 movie “Masoom”. The track, which is sung by Gauri Bapat, Gurpreet Kaur and Vanita Mishra, was picturised on Urmila Matondkar and Jugal Hansraj.
Directed by Shekhar Kapur, the drama film is an adaptation of the 1980 Erich Segal novel “Man, Woman and Child”, which was also adapted into a Malayalam movie “Olangal” and an American movie “Man, Woman and Child.”
The film stars Naseeruddin Shah and Shabana Azmi in lead roles along with Tanuja, Supriya Pathak and Saeed Jaffrey. It features Jugal Hansraj, Aradhana and Urmila as child actors.
