Veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who turned 67 on Sunday, got a special gift from Pakistan -- a portrait by a Lahore-based artist.

Mahesh's daughter and filmmaker Pooja took to Twitter to share how a Pakistani artist spent a whole night working on his canvas. She was 'overwhelmed' by his dedication.

`Mohammed Saeed Ghani, a painter from Lahore stayed up all night to paint this portrait of my father! Overwhelming,` Pooja tweeted on Sunday.


Not just Mahesh Bhatt's films, but even plays based on his films have been well-received in Pakistan. The filmmaker, who often calls himself a facilitator of the cultural dialogue between India and Pakistan, had earlier told IANS that Bollywood is responsible for reviving the interest in cinema in the neighbouring country.

Giving a sample of his work to the neighbouring country, Mahesh's play based on his 1989 film "Daddy" was staged in Pakistan earlier this year.
