A post shared by Zeenat Aman (@thezeenataman)

Off late, Zeenat Aman shared her most recent post on Instagram and wrote, “Hello from the pink city! We’re working 12 hour shifts here, so I’m making the most of my one free day today. I was on my way out for a social engagement, when @zanuski noticed the light on our hotel terrace and insisted I pose. By the way, the kids have started calling my social media ‘the beast’. And every time I resist their attempts to take a photograph ( which is more often than you’d imagine) they say I’m “starving the beast”! I think it’s quite a clever monicker for a platform that has so many perils and possibilities. What about you?”

'Shaque: The Doubt' is directed by Rajeev Chaudhari.
