Much of the late child actor's Dangal memories shared to her Instagram handle, happen to be from the time the team was promoting the film across the country.

The team, with Suhani in tow, evidently shared a rather warm understanding with one another. Here the younger members of the cast can be seen together at the movies.

This photo was interestingly captioned “Dangal ke pehelwan..” as the entire team posed together in the middle of promotions.

Suhani also shared a warm equation with Aamir Khan as she and Zaira Wasim can be seen sharing a few goofy moments with the actor.
