Sharmila Ji will recreate the train scene from her well-known song, Mere Sapno Ki Rani. The actor recreated the scene on stage with host Aditya Narayan and contestant Rishi Singh as they sang the popular song from the movie “Aradhana”.
By saying, “Pura Hindustan is proud of you,” Sharmila Tagore expressed her appreciation for Rishi Singh.
Rishi Singh, Sharmila Ji, and Aditya Narayan re-enacted the song’s famous scene. Rishi and Aditya played the male part of the scene which was originally played by Rajesh Khanna and Sujit. Sharmila Ji posed inside the mock train carriage with the same book she used in the movie while filming, When Eight Bells Toll by Alistair MacLean.

Sharmila Tagore made her acting debut at the age of 14 in Satyajit Ray’s Bengali drama “The World of Apu” and has since worked in a number of commercially successful movies including “Waqt,” “An Evening in Paris,” “Aradhana,” “Safar,” “Amar Prem,” “Daag,” and many more. Sharmila still had the same stunning appearance as she did in the original song, according to many fans. More than 50 years have passed since the movie, but she still looks lovely and graceful.
Late superstars Rajesh Khanna and Sujit Kumar also appear in the well-known song “Mere Sapno Ki Rani” from Aradhana. Famously, Rajesh and Sujit’s characters followed the toy train around in a jeep as the song was being filmed on it in Darjeeling.
Sharmila Ji said in the episode,
“She made a special trip to the studio and Kishore Ji sang the song very casually without any difficulty at all”.
