Since the very moment, legendary actress Zeenat Aman made her debut on Instagram, she has been known for sharing meaningful thoughts and anecdotes from her life that add to people’s perspectives. In one such post that she shared on Tuesday (Oct 14), she wrote about human relationships, old age and how it is to be young. Values and material possessions Pondering about life she wrote, “It was never a long journey, youth just made you perceive it to be so. That on a planet that is 4.5 billion years old you have snatched a fleeting moment of consciousness. Now you’re old and there’s no going back.” She added, “And what is there to show for a life well-lived? Surely it cannot be the frivolous pursuit of clothes or electronics or money or what have you. Yes, these can occupy and enable our lives to an extent, but what a tragedy if they were to define them. The only measure of meaning I can find is in the weight of the relationships we nurture.

‘Build your bridges, offer your apologies’: Zeenat Aman shares a sentimental note on life

<p>Zeenat Aman is taking matters in her own hands. In her latest Instagram post, the veteran actress took a dig at brands that undervalue her and are still not ready to pay a legit amount for getting her on board after all these years.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Posing in a fiery red outfit, Zeenat Aman struck a pose in the picture. Alongwith the image, she wrote in the caption: “Thank you, but no thank you. I can't tell you my precise worth, but I do know when I'm being undervalued.”&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Zeenat Aman called out brands who are not ready to give her due even now</strong></h2>

<p>She then went on to detail one of her “unpleasant” brand experiences and said, “Amidst the barrage of collaboration and appearance requests that materialise in my inbox each day, there are some that stand out for unpleasant reasons. Last minute invitations that the organiser forgot to edit (and which are addressed to another celebrity who must have declined) are mildly insulting. Impolite emails with minimal details and brusque ‘share commercials' are infuriating. And shady proposals to post stories or comments without the paid partnership tag are distasteful.”</p>

<p>Taking a dig at brands that offer “ludicrously low fees,” Zeenat Aman said, “Yet none of these compare to the impudence of multimillion-dollar brands that expect my endorsement in exchange for ‘brand association' and a ludicrously low fee.”</p>

<p>On how she is not fairly treated, she added, “Such luxury brands pay an eye-watering penny to their ambassadors (one of whom beautifully reprised a role I originally played), and sell even their most basic item for multiple lakhs of rupees.”</p>

<p>Zeenat&nbsp;Aman also mentioned that she is worth more than the price of a “designer handbag” or “high-heel shoe.”&nbsp;</p>

<p>She added, “I am over 70 years old, and I have held my own in this industry for over half a century. I work with what I know to be an unusual professionalism.”</p>

Zeenat Aman is taking matters in her own hands. In her latest Instagram post, the veteran actress took a dig at brands that undervalue her and are still not ready to pay a legit amount for getting her on board after all these years. Posing in a fiery red outfit, Zeenat Aman struck a pose in the picture. Alongwith the image, she wrote in the caption: “Thank you, but no thank you. I can't tell you my precise worth, but I do know when I'm being undervalued.” Zeenat Aman called out brands who are not ready to give her due even now She then went on to detail one of her “unpleasant” brand experiences and said, “Amidst the barrage of collaboration and appearance requests that materialise in my inbox each day, there are some that stand out for unpleasant reasons. Last minute invitations that the organiser forgot to edit (and which are addressed to another celebrity who must have declined) are mildly insulting. Impolite emails with minimal details and brusque ‘share commercials' are infuriating. And shady proposals to post stories or comments without the paid partnership tag are distasteful.” Taking a dig at brands that offer “ludicrously low fees,” Zeenat Aman said, “Yet none of these compare to the impudence of multimillion-dollar brands that expect my endorsement in exchange for ‘brand association' and a ludicrously low fee.” On how she is not fairly treated, she added, “Such luxury brands pay an eye-watering penny to their ambassadors (one of whom beautifully reprised a role I originally played), and sell even their most basic item for multiple lakhs of rupees.” Zeenat Aman also mentioned that she is worth more than the price of a “designer handbag” or “high-heel shoe.” She added, “I am over 70 years old, and I have held my own in this industry for over half a century. I work with what I know to be an unusual professionalism.” Read her full post here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Zeenat Aman (@thezeenataman) × She then went on to ask her followers to share their stories.

Zeenat Aman blasts brands for giving 'ludicrously low fees': I am more than a designer handbag

<p>Veteran actress Zeenat Aman is very active on Instagram nowadays. The 71-year-old actress, who is known for her charm, elegance, and beauty, recently made her debut on the photo-sharing app, and time and again, the actress is blessing our Insta feed with breathtaking photos of her.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, on Saturday, Zeenat shared a throwback photo of her, that she found on the internet. Along with the photo, the actress got nostalgic and shared a story behind the picture and the advice that she got from a British actor.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
''I’ve seen this image of myself floating around on the Internet, and thought it would be good to add some context to it,'' she wrote.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In the caption, Aman wrote that the photo was taken during the ‘muhurat’ ceremony of the 1978 film <em>Shalimar</em> starring Dharmendra, Shammi Kapoor and Hollywood star Rex Harrison.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In the black and white picture, the actress is wearing a silver colour gown with a deep front and cut-outs. The silver attire, which was designed by Zeenat herself, was created by the renowned costume designer Mani Rabadi.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The caption reads, ''The year was 1977, and the cast and crew of Krishna Shah’s Shalimar had gathered at the Turf Club in Mumbai for the film’s ‘muhurat’. It was a packed, high-profile event and everyone was dressed to the nines.''</p>

Veteran actress Zeenat Aman is very active on Instagram nowadays. The 71-year-old actress, who is known for her charm, elegance, and beauty, recently made her debut on the photo-sharing app, and time and again, the actress is blessing our Insta feed with breathtaking photos of her. However, on Saturday, Zeenat shared a throwback photo of her, that she found on the internet. Along with the photo, the actress got nostalgic and shared a story behind the picture and the advice that she got from a British actor. ''I’ve seen this image of myself floating around on the Internet, and thought it would be good to add some context to it,'' she wrote. In the caption, Aman wrote that the photo was taken during the ‘muhurat’ ceremony of the 1978 film Shalimar starring Dharmendra, Shammi Kapoor and Hollywood star Rex Harrison. In the black and white picture, the actress is wearing a silver colour gown with a deep front and cut-outs. The silver attire, which was designed by Zeenat herself, was created by the renowned costume designer Mani Rabadi. The caption reads, ''The year was 1977, and the cast and crew of Krishna Shah’s Shalimar had gathered at the Turf Club in Mumbai for the film’s ‘muhurat’. It was a packed, high-profile event and everyone was dressed to the nines.''
