Zeenat Aman made her way back to Instagram after being noticeably absent for a few weeks. In a post shared on Friday, the iconic star opened up about the reason behind her silence. Zeenat revealed that it had been “a woefully serious month” for her and her family, which kept her away from the platform and from sharing updates with her followers.
Despite the serious tone of recent weeks, Zeenat Aman chose to return to social media with warmth, wit and a dose of humour. She explained that she had come across several memes online, many of which were based on her own film career and image, featuring iconic actors like Dev Anand and Prem Chopra. These lighthearted creations, she said, helped her shake off the gloom and reconnect with the brighter side of life.
In her heartfelt note, she wrote, “It has been a woefully serious month in the Aman-Khan household, which should explain my long silence here.” While she chose not to reveal the specifics of the situation, she made it clear that it had been an emotionally challenging period for her personally.

She posted a series of memes and shared, “Now I am not in the frame of mind to divulge all, but I am in the mood to dust off the cobwebs and embrace the lighter side of life.” Emphasising the cultural relevance of humour on the internet today, she continued, “Memes are the internet’s love language right? So here’s a gift from me to you — a handful of tongue-in-cheek memes, conceptualised from my lived experience! Enjoy, and tell me which one you find the most relatable.”
