Mumbai, Oct 17 (NationPress) Actress Sonam Khan took a heartfelt journey down memory lane as she revealed her childhood ‘secret crush’ on the iconic actor Mithun Chakraborty.

In a charming and nostalgic post, she shared her early admiration for this legendary star. On Friday, Sonam used her Instagram account to post a throwback picture featuring herself alongside Mithun. In her caption, Khan reminisced about her experiences working with Mithun Chakraborty, explaining that he was the only co-actor who made her feel nervous due to her long-standing admiration for his work. She disclosed that he was unaware of her secret crush, which only heightened her nervousness.

Sonam commended his unmatched kindness and grace, stating, “Once a superstar, always a superstar with a heart of gold. @mithunchakrabortyofficial I signed a movie with Sir before my first film was even released, which was a huge deal for me as a complete newcomer. Thanks to his kindness, no audition was required.”

“He was the only co-actor I was nervous to work with because I was completely in awe of him, having grown up watching his movies. (Sir didn’t ever know, that secretly I had a crush on him which made me more nervous) Sir’s kindness and grace were, and always will be, a class apart. Years later, I met him at the Coimbatore airport when we were both heading to Ooty. Sir invited me for a seven-course lunch at his beautiful hotel, The Monarch. He was the same gracious gentleman I had met at the start of my career. Truly a superstar with a heart of gold. #mithunchakraborty #sonamkhan #aakhrighulammovie #throwbackmemories,” Sonam Khan added.

On the professional front, Sonam has been part of various films, including “Tridev,” “Mitti Aur Sona,” “Kroadh,” “Kodama Simham,” “Ajooba,” “Fateh,” and “Vishwatma.”
