Dia Mirza Spills the Beans on Her Starstruck Encounter With Shah Rukh Khan During Her Miss India Era

Ah, Mumbai! The city that never sleeps, much like the endless nostalgia trips of Bollywood stars! Today, we’re diving into the delightful world of Dia Mirza and her jaunt down memory lane, courtesy of her Instagram time machine.

Dia Mirza, just your average Miss India-turned-actress-turned-nostalgia queen, decided to sprinkle some vintage glamour on our timelines with a set of throwback snaps from her illustrious Miss India days. The year was 2000, the dawn of a new millennium, and the Femina Miss India contest was as grand as Bollywood’s love for sequins. Dia’s post was practically screaming, “Look at me, I was fabulous!” and who are we to disagree? 😏

And, oh, the judges! Imagine having a panel that boasts Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla, and a bunch of other iconic personalities. It’s like having a Bollywood film’s cast list, minus the plot twists and melodrama!

Dia couldn’t resist sharing her fangirl moment with none other than the King of Romance himself, Shah Rukh Khan. Apparently, there was a photoshoot backstage post-victory, and our Hyderabadi heroine was as starstruck as a kid in a candy store. Let’s be honest, who wouldn’t be dazzled with SRK’s dimples just a handshake away?

The trip down memory lane didn’t stop there. Dia revealed the million-dollar question that led to her, Priyanka Chopra, and Lara Dutta clinching the crowns. The question was a real head-scratcher: “If you were the policeman in the garden of Eden, who would you punish for the first sin. Adam, Eve, or the serpent?” And what was Dia’s answer, you ask? She decided to play the philosopher and declared that no one should be punished because, without sin, we wouldn’t be here today! Talk about dodging the question like a pro!

She wrapped up her post by pouring her heart out to Lara and Priyanka, reminiscing about the history they made that year. Fast forward to the present, Dia’s latest cinematic escapade was in the film Bheed, which graced the theatres on March 23, 2023.

Nisha’s Nutshell: In Bollywood, throwing it back is the new moving forward! Whether you’re reliving the glory days or just looking for an excuse to post glamorous photos, remember: nostalgia is the perfect filter for any Instagram post. 😜
