15 october 2024 : Veteran actor Zeenat Aman frequently shares life lessons and personal anecdotes on her social media. In a recent Instagram post, she emphasized the significance of human relationships, asserting that the “frivolous pursuit of clothes, electronics, or money” cannot define a life well lived. Referring to herself as an “old lady,” she also mentioned that she is recovering from a fall.
Insights on Human Relationships
Zeenat posted a black-and-white photo of herself, looking down and smiling while wearing an off-shoulder outfit. She reflected, “I am contemplating human relationships this morning. When you’re young, the years ahead seem like an endless road of possibilities. Old age feels like a distant, mythical destination.”
She continued, “What is there to show for a life well lived? It surely can’t be the trivial pursuit of material possessions. While they can occupy and enhance our lives to some extent, it would be tragic if they were what defined them. The true measure of meaning lies in the depth of the relationships we cultivate—evoking love, beauty, camaraderie, gratitude, compassion, and tenderness, and experiencing these in return.”
Reflections on Her Accident
Zeenat added, “Life is short. Take it from an old lady. Build bridges, offer apologies, express gratitude, show love, and forgive when necessary. I fell on set on Sunday evening, and now I have purple bruises. This serves as a reminder of my body’s fragility and inspires this meditation. Have a beautiful Tuesday, everyone. I invite you to share your stories of offering or accepting deep apologies in the comments, as it’s an underrated act.”
Career Highlights
Zeenat Aman will soon appear in the upcoming projects Bun Tikki and The Royals, directed by Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana. This eight-episode rom-com series explores the glamour and romance of modern Indian royalty.
