The actress in her younger days looked like a true diva. Revealing how she had seen the particular picture doing rounds on the internet and thus decided to decode its little history, the actress penned the caption as:
“Some Saturday glam to inspire your evening plans! I’ve seen this image of myself floating around on the Internet, and thought it would be good to add some context to it. The year was 1977, and the cast and crew of Krishna Shah’s Shalimar had gathered at the Turf Club in Mumbai for the film’s ‘mahurat’. It was a packed, high profile event and everyone was dressed to the nines.”

Going further in the caption, Zeenat penned some emotionally interesting lines, which conveyed how unfortunate she had been in finding true love in her personal life. In the latter half of the caption, Zeenat revealed how British actor, Rex Harrison complimented her in that outfit and said that such a beautiful girl like her should get married immediately. Recalling how those lines of compliments turned out to be completely ironic in her life, she mentioned:
“We had several international actors in attendance that day, including Gina Lollobrigida. She later backed out of the production, amongst swirling rumours that we had locked horns. British actor Rex Harrison wasn’t at the event, but he was in the film. One day on set, he told me – “ A beautiful girl like you should get married immediately”. I had a good laugh over that. And for the record, I think that’s a terrible reason to get married.”
