Dolly Ahluwalia

Veteran Bollywood actress Himani Shivpuri recently took a trip down memory lane as she recalled one of the most memorable moments from her theatre journey.

Set to enchant audiences, 'The Great Shamsuddin Family,' a delightful family comedy-drama from Mumbai, will grace the closing night of the 24th Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles on April 26. Helmed by the talented Anusha Rizvi, this film, which made its debut on JioHotstar last December, stars an impressive ensemble cast.

Dolly Ahluwalia, who played the cool mom in 'Vicky Donor', was in the city recently. She makes sure she does everything that she misses when she’s in Mumbai.

Dolly Ahluwalia, renowned for her acting and costume design, impressed with roles in Vicky Donor and Sardar Udham Singh, and her costume work in Band Baaja Baaraat and Omkara. She praised Kareena Kapoor's warmth and shared playful anecdotes from Omkara, highlighting the film's authentic design and its impact.

She did not start her acting career with Shekhar Kapur's 'Bandit Queen', but Dolly Ahluwalia gets nostalgic with the very mention of the film as it helped her win her first National Award.

Looks like Dolly Ahluwalia's drinking act in Soojit Sarcar’s 'Vicky Donor' has not only earned her accolades but also several projects on the small screen.
