Zanai Remembers Asha Bhosle
Zanai has been sharing fond memories of her grandmother on social media over the last few days.
In a throwback video shared by Zanai, she and Asha Bhosle are seen vibing to the celebratory mood while watching a sea of people on a Mumbai street from their balcony. Zanai encapsulated the mood of her post with these words: "She would want us to celebrate just the way she celebrated life."
It was followed by a wholesome video where Zanai attempts to mimic the expressions from the Umrao Jaan song "Dil Cheez Kya Hai" as the veteran sings by her side.
An excerpt from the post read: "She's looking down on us all, especially her family, and I believe she's going to come back to me very soon, because that is what she promised me and told me always!!
"I have lost the love of my life, and there is no bigger grief in the world, so I urge you guys to live life to your fullest and celebrate her that way—and celebrate her life!!"
