Zeenat Aman has now resorted to social media to commemorate the 100th anniversary of "Dev Saab" and written a poignant note. On the occasion of Dev Anand's 100th birthday, Zeenat Aman came to Instagram to share two images from her popular 'Dum Maaro Dum' song from the films 'Hare Krishna Hare Ram' (1971) and 'Heera Panna' (1973), as well as a meaningful remark.

She wrote, "Celebrating 100 years of Dev saab. Stylish, suave, and prolific, he was a dynamo beyond compare. And what generosity of talent! He sparked careers (mine included), brought together creative heads, and made films that resonated across generations. It gladdens my heart to see his legacy honoured an entire century since his birth. In recent days, I've been overwhelmed with requests for comments about him but there is little to add to what I’ve already said."

She added, "Though, I posted a three-part series about him just a few weeks ago, I can't resist the nostalgia of these two frames from our earliest films together. They will be instantly recognisable to my older followers, but I’m not so sure about you younger lot!" and concluded with a pink flower emoji.

Zeenat Aman reveals her relationship with Raj Kapoor:

Zeenat Aman revealed during the ABP Ideas Of India 2023 summit that she was chosen by Raj Kapoor to work in the film Satyam Shivam Sundaram, and she attended a party as his upcoming leading woman.

She said, "Raj had signed me for Satyam Shivam Sundaram and I went there as his about-to-be heroine. I never had an interpersonal relationship (with him), not before that and never after that. It was always a director-actor relationship (between us). He was passionate about his work and I was passionate about his work but never did he ask me why I did not wear white. In fact, if you look at it, I have never worn white on his sets or parties. Never has he said 'Why didn't you wear white'? With all due respect, ek kahani banane me, hindsight se kuch interesting banane ke liye kuch jumle daal dete hain (sometimes, some phrases are added to make a narrative or a story interesting)."
