What makes this moment even more special is that Wamiqa is currently promoting Bhool Chuk Maaf, a feature film backed by one of the biggest production houses in the country. And in a poetic twist, the film features a remix of Chor Bazaari, the very song from Love Aaj Kal. Today, that same music from the film she once was a junior artist in plays again, but this time, Wamiqa is front and center.
In her heartfelt caption, Wamiqa wrote:
"Dear Younger Wamiqa,
You were always a dreamer and a hard working one ! As a kid on that Love Aaj Kal set - you were not just a junior artist enjoying the work that came your way because your Daddaa believed in you, but you believed in yourself too…. You were nervous, excited, soaking it all in on that set.
You have only continued to work harder without worrying about whats coming next !
Cut to 16 years later,
The song from the same film is playing and the same love for the camera still lives on, but this time, it’s your story ! Every time I hear Chor Bazaari, it hits a little different now ! You’ve gone from being in one fleeting frame as a toddler with a mooch and a massa, to finding your own space in the spotlight.
It’s wild how life can throw such beautiful moments to cherish, especially when you least expect it !
You didn’t dream small and you never stop chasing the best because TITLI wouldn’t have happened if you had gotten lost on the way and I am so glad you didn’t ! Always be humble, grateful and never stop believing in MAGIC !
Love,
Wamiqa 🤍"
