She came on stage and addressed the crowd, \u201cFirst of all, hi to everyone. How are you all doing?\u201d A fan shouted, \u201cWe love you,\u201d and Harshaali flashed her million-dollar smile and said, \u201cThank you!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She also said, \u201cI was very happy when I bagged this film. I was so happy that after 10 years, I\u2019ll be back in cinemas, that too with the legend of South and India, NBK sir. Hence, I was very grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As expected, Nandamuri Balakrishna aka NBK came last and entertained the attendees with his replies. He began by discussing his non-film work and starting a cancer hospital after his mother\u2019s sad demise. He talked about each and every person on the stage and his experience of working with them.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Harshaali Malhotra, Nandamuri Balakrishna said, \u201cShe\u2019s very lucky to do this film after Bajrangi Bhaijaan. She has a crucial part and I can\u2019t say much about her role. I just want to speak about this actress, who was the young girl in Bajrangi Bhaijaan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NBK then stated, \u201cThere\u2019s a child actor with us as well here. Where\u2019s Veda?\u201d Veda Agarwal, who was present at the venue, came on stage. Nandamuri informed the audience, \u201cShe was in my other film, Daaku Maharaaj (2025), as well. She\u2019s based in Mumbai.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nandamuri Balakrishna asked her, \u201cHow are you,\u201d and kissed her cheeks. Veda replied, \u201cI am fine\u201d. NBK turned to Harshaali, \u201cYou were of the same age when you worked in Bajrangi Bhaijaan, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He asked Beda Agarwal, \u201cHow old are you? Sharmana mat. Tum choti bacchi ho. Bol do!\u201d Veda confidently replied, \u201cI am 9 years old.\u201d Harshaali Malhotra replied, \u201cI was 6 (when I shot for Bajrangi Bhaijaan).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nandamuri Balakrishna was astonished by her answer. He then remarked, \u201cBut Veda and I shot for Daaku Maharaj 3 years ago. So that makes Veda of the same age (as Harshaali when she worked on her debut film).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Akhanda 2: Thaandavam releases in cinemas on December 5.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a class=\"row-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/features\/10-years-bajrangi-bhaijaan-exclusive-harshaali-malhotra-aka-munni-says-watch-film-today-feel-like-wow-really-also-recalls-acti\/\" aria-label=\"\u201c10 years of Bajrangi Bhaijaan EXCLUSIVE: Harshaali Malhotra aka Munni says, \u201cWhen I watch the film today, I feel like, \u2018Wow, was that really me?\u2019\u201d; also recalls an acting lesson taught by Salman Khan\u201d (Edit)\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">10 years of Bajrangi Bhaijaan EXCLUSIVE: Harshaali Malhotra aka Munni says, \u201cWhen I watch the film today, I feel like, \u2018Wow, was that really me?\u2019\u201d; also recalls an acting lesson taught by Salman Khan<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p> More Pages: <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie\/bajrangi-bhaijaan\/box-office\/\" title=\"Bajrangi Bhaijaan Box Office Collection\" alt=\"Bajrangi Bhaijaan Box Office Collection\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bajrangi Bhaijaan Box Office Collection<\/a> , <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie\/bajrangi-bhaijaan\/critic-review\/bajrangi-bhaijaan-movie-review\/\" title=\"Bajrangi Bhaijaan Movie Review\" alt=\"Bajrangi Bhaijaan Movie Review\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bajrangi Bhaijaan Movie Review<\/a><strong>Tags : <\/strong> <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/aadhi-pinisetty\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Aadhi Pinisetty<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/akhanda-2\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Akhanda 2<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/akhanda-2-thaandavam\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Akhanda 2: Thaandavam<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/bajrangi-bhaijaan\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bajrangi Bhaijaan<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/balakrishna-nandamuri\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Balakrishna Nandamuri<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/bollywood-features\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bollywood Features<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/boyapati-srinu\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Boyapati Srinu<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/down-the-memory-lane\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Down The Memory Lane<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/features\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Features<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/flashback\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Flashback<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/gopi-achanta\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gopi Achanta<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/harshaali-malhotra\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Harshaali Malhotra<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/kailash-kher\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kailash Kher<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/munni\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Munni<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/music\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Music<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/nandamuri-balakrishna\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nandamuri Balakrishna<\/a>, <a data-pjax=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/tag\/s-thaman\/\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">S.
