Sharing it, Karisma wrote: “Wonderful memories..” In the black and white picture, Karisma strikes a glamourous pose. Sharing the picture, Avinash had written: “#FlashbackFriday. My absolute favvvvourite... Lolo!! This photo is from 1998... Just around the time of #RajaHindustani... I didn’t have a studio, so this photo (like many others) was shot under her building with natural light...@therealkarismakapoor.” These were the times when she was a reigning diva and Avinash a budding photographer.

Raja Hindustani, when it released in 1996, went on to become one of the most successful films of the 1990s. The film featured a kiss between its lead cast -- Karisma and Aamir Khan -- which became rather controversial. A remake of Shashi Kapoor and Nanda film, Jab Jab Phool Khile, the film is the story of a cab driver falling in love with a rich girl. The film won Karisma Filmfare Best Actress Award too.

Karisma, meanwhile, is pretty regular with her posts and often shares throwbacks, flashbacks and film anniversary posts. A couple of days back, she had posted a picture on her film, Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge completing 20 years. Posting a picture with Salman Khan, the film’s hero, she had written: “20 years of #dulhanhumlejayenge Time flies! I remember this super fun shoot in Mauritius so fondly! @beingsalmankhan @david.dhawan #tuesdaythoughts.”
