The Icons: Sharmila Tagore and Twinkle Khanna | Tweak Summit 2023

I love how actresses of that era- Sharmila Tagore, Waheeda Rahman, Asha Parekh, Mumtaz, Saira Banu, talk and conduct themselves in such a dignified manner. I even miss how movies were made in those times.

Absolutely loved when Sharmila corrected Twinkle 9:07 “Cinema and Cricket” not “Bollywood and Cricket”!

78 years old!?!? Sharmila ji looks sooo beautiful. Ageing so gracefully.

Sharmilaji has always been the epitome if grace to me. This was a special treat. Thank uou for doing this. Her being soo classy shines through👌

Whenever you hear actresses from this era you realise actors today can get an ideal figure,skin lightening,perfect make up etc with money but this elegance,sophistication and grace can only come from your heart and from being a good person

So lovely to hear Sharmila Tagore pronounce Satyajit Ray exactly how a Bengali would pronounce a Bengali name and didn't try to pronounce it like a non-Bengali ❤

We also want to see talking Zeenat Aman, dimple Kapadia, Amrita Singh, Rekha, Poonam Dhillon, Helen , Bindu , tanuja, rakhee, all yester year actress pleeeeeese.

Omg she’s fabulous! I love watching her interviews and she’s so eloquent. Also, great style in every era.

Dear Twinkle, I hope this letter finds you in the best of spirits. I wanted to take a moment to express my profound gratitude for the exceptional work you do as an interviewer and for the remarkable content you create on "The Icons." Your ability to delve into the lives and careers of legendary personalities is truly commendable, and it's always a delight to watch your interviews. I must admit that my heart skipped a beat when I learned that you had the privilege of hosting the legendary Sharmila Tagore on your show. As someone who deeply admires her, I couldn't contain my excitement. Sharmila Ji's grace, talent, and timeless beauty have left an indelible mark on Indian cinema, and her performances in iconic films like "Aaradhna," "Amar Prem," and "Safar" have been etched in the annals of cinematic history. She truly is a gem of our film industry. It was an absolute joy to witness her on your show, where you brought out the essence of her journey and her contributions to Indian cinema. Your thoughtful questions and engaging conversations added another layer of appreciation for her incredible work. In a world where nostalgia often takes a back seat, your show serves as a bridge between generations, allowing us to cherish the legends of yesteryears. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to you for making this possible and for being the bridge that connects us to the icons who have shaped the landscape of Indian entertainment. I look forward to many more insightful interviews on your show and eagerly await the opportunity to see more of my favorite icons grace your platform. Thank you once again for your dedication and passion for preserving and celebrating the legacy of luminaries like Sharmila Tagore. Wishing you continued success and looking forward to more memorable episodes of "The Icons." Warm regards, Anjalie

Sharmila is such an intelligent woman who lives life on her own terms. An example to all women.

She speaks so wisely and calmly and also explains well. A great orator right there!

Her language, her pauses, her grace. Thankyou Twinkle

Twinkle seemed to be in a hurry to get on with her question. 😂 she didn't react to appreciate when sharmila ji said that Apur Sansar is one of the 100 best films in the world.

I wish the interview did continue for another 3 hours! It's always such a joy listening to Sharmila ji.

Her boldness was undeniable. Imagine being from the Tagore family and willing to wear a bikini and give hot scenes without hesitation. In spite of the fact that Pataudi couldn't watch her movies, she didn't care.

You know you are a writer when being related to Rabindranath Tagore sounds like the most fascinating thing ever ❤

A good example of a blended family because of not only the qualifications, but also the education of the members of this family. The one lesson is go to college, if you cant, travel, follow sports, poetry, art, culture, expose yourself to everything. Harmony will come to every family in the country❤

This lady & her generation was iconic

Pls don’t time such videos. These are like epic conversations that you want to let run and not rush through…hopefully we will see a part 2…so much to listen to and learn!

Absolutely loved the last bit of advice by Sharmila Ji. Take time to Prioritise yourself over others . ❤ absolutely loved the interview
