Mumbai: Remembering his late mother Nargis Dutt on what would have been her 92nd birth anniversary, Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt shared priceless monochromatic pictures from his family album on social media.

The actor shared a series of old family pictures on Instagram to mark the special day. The first snap is a childhood picture of Sanjay where he is seen posing with his late mother and two sisters, Namrata Dutt and Priya Dutt. The rest of the two pictures showcase the candid and happy moments captured between Sanjay's parents.

"There's nobody else like you. Happy Birthday Maa," Sanjay Dutt wrote in the caption.

Nargis, whose real name was Fatima Rashid, is regarded as one of the most celebrated actors of Indian cinema and has films such as Andaaz, Barsaat, Awaara, and Academy Award-nominated Mother India to her credit in a career spanning three decades. She won the National Award for best actress for Raat Aur Din (1967).

She married her Mother India co-star Sunil Dutt in 1958. Together they had three children: Sanjay Dutt, politician Priya Dutt and Namrata Dutt. Nargis died of pancreatic cancer on May 3, 1981, three days before Sanjay Dutt's debut film Rocky hit the theatres.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Sanjay, who was last seen in Sadak 2 with Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapoor, will be soon seen in action-drama K.G.F Chapter 2, and action-adventure Shamshera alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Vaani Kapoor.
