To relive the scenes from 1981 Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Silsila, hundreds of locals and tourists on Wednesday thronged the country’s largest blooming tulip garden in Srinagar, which opened in the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic that had kept people indoors.
Long rows of flower beds at the Indira Gandhi Memorial Tulip garden, located at the foothills of the Zabarwan range and spread over 20 acres, is home to 15 lakh tulips of 68 varieties.
“I have seen a tulip garden in the famous song, Dekha ek Khwab, from Silsila. The stark resemblance and the expanse of the garden have made us relive those beautiful scenes from the movie,” Nisha Rawat, a tourist from New Delhi, accompanied by her husband, said.
