The post quickly resonated with fans, who flooded the comment section with Friendship Day wishes and appreciation for his heartfelt sentiment.
Friendship Day is celebrated annually on the first Sunday of August — falling on August 3 this year.
Kher is currently enjoying the success of his recent directorial project Tanvi The Great, which marked his return behind the camera after two decades. The film stars Shubhangi Dutt, Boman Irani, Karan Tacker, Jackie Shroff, Arvind Swami, Nasser, and British actor Iain Glen. Produced by Anupam Kher Studios in association with NFDC, the movie has garnered acclaim both in India and internationally, with screenings at major festivals including Cannes, New York, Houston, and London.
Tanvi The Great tells the inspiring story of a young girl determined to follow in her late father’s footsteps and join the Indian Army.
In addition to the film’s success, Kher recently launched his new book Different But No Less. The launch event saw the presence of several notable personalities including Mahesh Bhatt, Boman Irani, Gajraj Rao, Shubhangi Dutt, author Amish Tripathi, and Kher’s mother.
