I wish you all a very Happy Dussehra; may you receive the best that God has to offer.”
In the clip of the vintage film, netizens can see Saira portraying Anupama, lifting the bow to the effigy of Ravana on the eve of Dussehra. This symbolises the destruction of negative energy. The scene is followed by a resounding cheer all around, as Ravana is engulfed in flames.
