In a series of Instagram posts on Wednesday, Anushka shared a set of iconic Bollywood posters and pictures with Shashi, her character - a ghost - in the film, embedded in them. For instance, we can see Shashi sitting on the side car of Amitabh Bachchan’s scooter in a still from Sholay and Anushka explains, “Now you know why Veeru is riding on Jai’s back!”
