Taking to her Instagram Stories, the actress re-shared some entertaining moments featuring Iqbal, adding a humorous caption that read, "Ladies and gents. Tired of too many ads? My husband. And his choicest choice in music."
A Nostalgic Musical Selection
The clip shared by Sinha featured the classic Bollywood song 'Aaj Ki Shaam Pyar' playing in the background. This nostalgic track is from the 1993 action drama film 'Tiranga', starring Raaj Kumar, Nana Patekar, Varsha Usgaonkar, Harish Kumar, and Mamta Kulkarni. The film was a major blockbuster success upon its release.
'Tiranga' follows the story of Brigadier Suryadev Singh and Police Inspector Shivajirao Waghle, who are tasked with bringing down a terrorist named Pralayanth. This antagonist murdered officer Rudrapratap Chauhan and plans to evade Indian authorities. The film's plot adds depth to the song choice, highlighting Iqbal's appreciation for vintage cinema.
