In the picture, Hema Malini is standing next to Sholay director Ramesh Sippy, while the latter is explaining a film scene to her.
Sharing the picture, she wrote, “Sholay remains one of my favourite for many reasons. Sharing a photo shared by my fan where director Ramesh Sippy is explaining me the scene. And you can clearly see those pages in my hand. I had to rattle off 4 pages of "Basanti" dialogues. This is the scene just before that "tanga" chase scene by Gabbar goons.”
According to Hema Malini, the scene is just before her tanga is chased by Gabbar’s goon in Sholay. The picture received more than 12,000 likes on Instgaram and around 100 comments.
