The photoshoot celebrated 25 years of the designer’s work in the film industry, and brought the three actors together. Sharing it on Instagram, he captioned it, “#throwback Posing with the most amazingly talented favourite girls @therealkarismakapoor @kareenakapoorkhan @aliaabhatt @vogueindia covet shoot 5 years ago celebrating my 25 year journey in the movies #flashback #memories @mmalhotraworld.”

The picture shows the three actors in sequinned dresses from his collection. While Karisma and Alia are seated as they pose for the camera, Kareena is standing behind them and looking away from the lens. Manish is also a part of the photoshoot and is seen sitting on a ladder behind the three of them.

Alia was recently seen accompanying Ranbir and family during the last rites of his actor father Rishi Kapoor. She was seen comforting his mother Neetu at the hospital where the veteran actor died after a two-year-long battle with cancer. Kareena was also present for the funeral with husband Saif Ali Khan.
