Mumbai, Oct 14 (NationPress) – Actress Navneet Nishan recently took a nostalgic journey as she reflected on her experiences from the iconic film "Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke".

Navneet shared several stills from the movie, showcasing moments with the film’s lead star Aamir Khan, leading lady Juhi Chawla, and other cast members, while providing a detailed caption highlighting some behind-the-scenes moments.

She wrote, “Mumbai, 1992. Film "Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar Ke". I shot with Aamir for a film titled "Time Machine", directed by Shekhar Kapur; unfortunately, the project was never completed. Soon after, I received a call from Tahir Hussain ji regarding this film.” She continued, “I was thrilled to be part of a project helmed by Mahesh Bhatt ji, and the cast was remarkable. However, my excitement was short-lived as Bhatt Saab informed me that I was to play a negative role, which I was initially hesitant about. He encouraged me to hear the narration before making a decision.”

Navneet recounted, “I received a captivating narration from Robin Bhatt at the Filmistan studio, and I instantly fell in love with the script, leading me to accept the role. The shooting commenced, and I was somewhat intimidated working alongside stars like Bhatt Saab, Aamir, and Juhi.

She elaborated, “There were moments I felt nervous, but I mustered all my courage to perform. This experience turned out to be one of the highlights of my career. I was particularly inspired by Aamir and subconsciously absorbed many lessons in professionalism from him.” Navneet reminisced, “Upon release, the film became a colossal success, and I was ecstatic, but it also led to me being typecast, with vamp roles dominating my offers thereafter. Nevertheless, I was fortunate to collaborate with Aamir in three more films. He has been one of the finest co-stars—professional, genuine, approachable, compassionate, and a prankster. I found a wonderful friend in him and will always treasure our memories together @daliptahil #aamirkhan #daliptahil.”

For those unfamiliar, in the film, Navneet portrayed the negative character Maya, a fashionable and modern woman who persistently tries to win over Aamir Khan's character, Rahul Malhotra. "Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke" featured a stellar cast including Aamir Khan, Juhi Chawla, Dilip Tahil, and Tikku Talsania, with child actors Kunal Kemmu, Baby Aishwarya, and Sharokh Bharucha playing the mischievous children.

The film was directed by Mahesh Bhatt and produced by Tahir Hussain, premiering in 1993 to rave reviews from audiences, establishing itself as one of the most beloved family entertainers of the decade. The music, composed by the renowned duo Nadeem Shravan, featured chart-topping vocals by Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik.

Navneet Nishan, who has been indulging in nostalgia, has shared numerous behind-the-scenes photos and stories from her blockbuster films of the 90s.

She is also fondly remembered for her impactful role in and as Tara, a show that became a hallmark of the '90s, showcasing women's independence and ambition; it was perceived as progressive and ahead of its time.
