The reel has been watched by more than 14 million users of the social site and received thousands of likes and comments for Bibbojaan.
Notably, Hydari essayed Bibbojaan, daughter of chief courtesan Mallikajaan, in Bhansali’s much-awaited digital debut ‘Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar’, about the courtesans living in the red-light district of Lahore.
The eight-episodic web series, starring Hydari along with Richa Chadha, Sonakshi Sinha, Sharmin Segal, Manisha Koirala and Sanjeeda Sheikh in main roles, along with Farida Jalal, Fardeen Khan, Shekhar and Adhyayan Suman, and Taha Shah, premiered on the streaming giant Netflix earlier this month.
The title received mixed reviews from viewers and critics alike, however, Hydari’s performance, particularly her famous walk from the song was massively praised.
