However, she added that they never danced together off-camera, even though they all were fantastic dancers of their time.

Further Waheeda Rehman also talked about the most important things in a female friendship and said understanding and trust for each other is necessary. The veteran actress also added that one should not try to change the other person and rather accept them for who they are.
