Actress Manisha Koirala is very happy at the moment. She is equally excited. The series 'Hiramundi: The Diamond Bazaar' starring him has been released today (May 1). It can be viewed on Netflix.

Famous director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has also made his OTT debut. There is a lot of talk about this series in the Indian media. Manisha herself is also giving interviews with a little too much emotion. As everyone knows, Bhansali has both a distinct mark and impact on Bollywood.

First of all, Manisha is happy that she got to work with Bhansali. Both of them have also worked together in some special films. Like, '1942: A Love Story' and 'Khamosi: The Musical'. Among them, Khamosi was directed by Bhansali himself. The film itself was a success. Critics loved it too. And Manisha's performance in it was also preferred. Khamosi was released in 1996, now it is also 28 years old.

From that time, Manisha had one thing in mind, to work with Bhansali again. But it was completed, much later, in the year 2024. With a smile on her face, Manisha said, "Let's not wait 28 years to do another work together. Hai Bhansali." How did she get the opportunity in Hiramandi? According to herself, whenever Bhansali wanted to talk about it, Manisha was in Kathmandu. He was keeping himself busy towards the garden.

But when she heard Bhansali's proposal, she was shocked. Manisha herself was happy to see his progress. There is a lot of difference between the Bhansali who made Khamosi and the same Bhansali today. In this his career graph is only going to climb higher. Manisha herself is no longer the same as she was during the silence. Manisha is extremely happy that after such a long time, she got to work with such a good director in such a good series.

She said with real emotion,  'I was touched by cancer. That too had reached the fourth stage. But I'm still dying. For me it is like a second life. I didn't know if I would live or not. Nor did he know how long he would live. Now I got a chance to work in a series like Hiramandi. I got an equally important role. It seems like a second life for any actor.'

This time Manisha is going to play the role of 'Mallika Jaan' in Hiramandi. She is not the only one in this series, there are many other Anineeta actresses in many other lands. Like, Sonakshi Sinha, Sanjida Sikh, Richa Chadha, Aditi Rao Hydari. Manisha says, “As an artist, everyone wants to work in a good screenplay. We know the value of not only good roles and screenplays, but equally good filmmakers. Bhansali is never one to compromise to do something good.

Along with Hiramandi, actor Fardeen Khan is also making a comeback, that too after a long gap of 14 years. Even Fardeep himself would be emotional. A lot has happened in Fardin's life in these last 14 years. He was completely lost from Bollywood. He was forgotten by many. He will play the role of 'Wali Mohammed' in Hiramandi. 'This role is right for my age to make a comeback after such a long time.'

There are many stories associated with Hiramandi. They are also heard repeatedly. After the series will come, the discussion will start. If you want to follow this series, it is necessary to understand its history even if only a little. Since the 'first look' of the series has been released, many have tried to understand about Hiramandi. For this we have to geographically go to Lahore in Pakistan. And depending on the time, we have to go back to the Mughal period.

especially Hiramandi is a 'red light area' in Lahore. At one time it was also called Shahi Mohalla. It was very famous when India and Pakistan were not divided. It is said that only love is exchanged in that room. There is also politics. Politics is cheating. During the Mughal period, women were brought here from distant countries. There were music and dance performances. It was like a part of the culture.
