Mumbai, June 3 (IANS) Actress Sapna Thakur says cycling always takes her down the memory lane, to the time when she got her first pair of wheels. The actress opened up on the subject on Thursday, on the occasion of World Bicycle Day.
"When it comes to cycling, all I can recall are priceless memories of my childhood. I remember I was in the sixth grade when my mother gifted me my first cycle on my birthday, it was a red Hero Jet. Six friends and I would ride our cycles to school every morning. This is one of the fondest memories I have of that time," she said.
"Even after so many years, I still have the cycle at my house in Chandigarh and whenever I get a chance, I would love to go cycling around the city. I really miss those days, especially my girl gang who I was extremely close to," added Sapna, who plays Samaira in the Zee TV show "Kyun Rishton Mein Katti Batti".
Filmmaker Karan Johar made his directorial debut in 1998 with "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai", starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol and Rani Mukerji. The film continues to be a fan favourite, but the director feels the romantic-drama is the most politically incorrect film.
Filmmaker Nikkhil Advani is all set to return with his "Batla House" star John Abraham in the period sports drama "1911". He revealed that shooting for the forthcoming film will begin at the end of next year.
Not many remember, but actress Manjari Fadnnis had started off as a contestant in a singing-based reality show in 2003. The singer in her is still alive and kicking. The "Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na" actress says she has been silently working on her musical skills, and has already recorded two original singles.
Actress Disha Patani confesses she is a genuine pet lover. She adds that she would love to adopt more pets, but she doesnt have enough space in her Mumbai apartment.
