In her birthday message, Urmila affectionately referred to Shabana Azmi as the “Maa that CineMa gave me,” playfully adding, “Cheesy as it may sound I can always say to anyone ‘Mere paas Maa hai’.” Urmila's touching note highlighted the bond she has shared with Shabana for nearly four decades. “It has been an absolute pleasure and an incredible privilege to have seen you, worked with you, understood, and learnt a great deal from you, which still continues,” she wrote.

Decades of Friendship and Collaboration

The heartfelt post also showcased the depth of their connection. Urmila noted, “Nothing can precisely describe the bond that I share with you, which both of us have so carefully woven over almost 4 decades and tremendously cherished.” In addition to Masoom, the two actresses have collaborated on films such as Tehzeeb, Karm, and Bhavna, strengthening their personal and professional relationship over the years.

Most recently, Shabana Azmi was seen in Ghoomer alongside Saiyami Kher and Abhishek Bachchan, and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. Both films were released in 2023. Her next project, Bun Tikki, will feature her alongside Abhay Deol and Zeenat Aman.
