Actor Urmila Matondkar has shared a picture on Twitter to wish veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah on his birthday. Naseer turned 71 on Tuesday.
Urmila shared a throwback picture from their 1983 movie, Masoom. Urmila played Naseer's daughter in the movie, which also starred Shabana Azmi and Jugal Hansraj. "Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Naseer uncle #naseeruddinshah," she wrote with the photo.
Urmila and Naseer's fans on Twitter showered them with love. "Naseeruddin Shah is a force to reckon with in Indian cinema, and to talk about his body of work in one piece will perhaps be too limiting. The onscreen icon who is nearing five decades in the industry, and has inspired generations of actors," wrote one. "My first movie on a first day first show in a theater and the memories are still fresh, be it the music, the story, the lyrics, the actors, directors, what a absolute wonder, thank you and many happy returns of the day nasser sahab," wrote another.
