Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Khamoshi Marks 28th Anniversary

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut film 'Khamoshi: The Musical' is celebrating its 28th anniversary since its release on August 9, 1996. The film, starring Salman Khan and Manisha Koirala, tells the poignant story of a young girl, Annie, who navigates her dreams of becoming a singer while caring for her deaf and mute parents. Bhansali Productions marked the occasion by sharing a nostalgic video montage on social media, emphasizing the film’s enduring themes of love and music. Despite a lukewarm initial reception, 'Khamoshi' has developed a cult following and is now regarded as a classic in Hindi cinema. Bhansali has since created numerous acclaimed films and recently ventured into OTT with the series 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar'. The film’s soundtrack, noted for its emotional depth, further contributes to its lasting legacy.
