The behind-the-scene picture has Anil in his popular brown blazer and hat look as he embraces Sridevi, who is seen in a long white dress. Shekhar looks older now while Anil continues to maintain his looks. Sridevi is no more. The film was directed by Boney Kapoor who went on to marry Sridevi 10 years later.

Mr India was directed by Shekhar Kapur and was a blockbuster. It also starred Amrish Puri, Satish Kaushik and Annu Kapoor. Amrish Puri died in 2005 and Satish died last month. Satish played the role of Anil’s friend and cook Calender in the film. He was just 66 and died soon after Holi celebrations on March 8.

On Thursday, Anil attended the birth anniversary function of Satish in Mumbai and also penned a note in his remembrance on Instagram. Sharing a video montage of their several films together, Anil wrote, “While I sit here trying to find the right words or just any words really to express what I feel right now…I want to fill books telling you what you mean to me but I know you already knew that…in the 3 mins of this video, I relived so many of our memories. I wish we had more time…I wish I could call you and tell you just one more time how lucky I am to have you in my life….I miss you beyond words Satish…I pray that everyone has a friend like you in their life because you were a true blessing…Happy Birthday my friend.”
