The fading black and white image was taken during the music launch of 1984 film Duniya, which starred screen legend Dilip Kumar, Amrita Singh and Rishi Kapoor. The image sees RD Burman, the music composer for the film, Ashok Kumar, Pran, Javed Akhtar, Manik Irani, Amrish Puri, Shashi Kapoor and Kulbhushan Kharbanda, along with Duniya’s lead pair. Twitter users replied to the image with ‘old is gold’, trying to guess the names of the personalities featured in the picture.
Duniya... The only Dharma Productions Movie Dilip Saab worked for in 80s... Nostalgic..
