Veteran actress Shabana Azmi on Sunday took to Twitter and lauded her husband and lyricist Javed Akhtar for his contribution to the 'Vision Juhu' project. 'Vision Juhu' project is aimed at comprehensive development of the entire neighbourhood of Juhu in which citizens have joined hands with professionals to document and plan their region.
On the completion of a cycling track created out of Rs 26 crore given by Akhtar from his Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) funds, Shabana tweeted his photograph and wrote: "Thank you Javed Akhtar for the long awaited cycling track in Juhu from your MPLADS funds.
"We are waiting for the completion of 'Vision Juhu' project for which you have given Rs 26 crore. It will create 10 kms of open space and transform Juhu."
Meanwhile, Shabana Azmi recently said that the filmmaking process has developed in the country which she considers to be the best thing that has happened to Indian cinema.
"What is good about today's movies is that there are acting workshops organised with an intent to bring a familiarity between the actors and characters which is essential for any film," Shabana said.
"This also helps the actors in understanding the director's vision in a proper way. Today, actors have well-researched scripts in their hand which wasn't the case with us earlier,'' she said.
