A tribute to a timeless Bollywood classic

Directed by Karan Johar and produced by Yash Johar, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham remains one of Bollywood’s most iconic family dramas. Even decades after its release, the film continues to connect with audiences. Its memorable scenes, dialogues, and performances have ensured its place in Bollywood history. Farida Jalal’s portrayal of Daijaan remains one of the most cherished aspects of the film.
Even after more than two decades, her performance continues to be remembered fondly by fans. She also received praise for her role as Qudsia Begum in 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar.'About her performance in Heeramandi, our exclusive ETimes review noted: "Farida Jalal brings warmth as the endearing Begum Qudsia, and Jayati Bhatia impresses as Mallikajaan's loyal servant. Heeramandi, overall, might feel like a long watch, but the cinematic experience will linger on long after its conclusion. And like every Bhansali project, this one, too, throbs with passion and creativity, leaving you mesmerized by the sights and sounds."The veteran actress was recently seen in The Great Shamsuddin Family and Love in Vietnam.
