On the last day of shooting of ‘Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.’ Shabana Azmi had a special gift to give to her co-star Boman Irani .
Shabana and Boman, who play couples in Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd. got along very well during the shooting of the film. Besides their work, they discussed movies, literature and art.
Shabana, who comes from a family of poets and is also married to a poet (Javed Akhtar), asked Boman about his favourite poem. Boman told her it was Rudyard Kipling’s poem called ‘If’.
Then, on the last day of the film’s shooting, Shabana gave Boman a very touching gift. She gave him a perfume called ‘If’ and a book called ‘If’ in which there was the poem ‘If’ by Kipling.
Boman says he was quite moved by the personal touch that Shabana gave to the gift. He has decided to use the perfume very frugally because he considers it a precious gift.
By the way, ‘Honeymoon Travels’ also features a kiss between Boman and Shabana.
