In Musing 2489, I posted  an image of Yaqub with a heroine here. I always post my musings on Facebook also.

Soon after my post, Shalin Bhatt suggested that it may be Miss Panna. He also found an image of her. Mohd Shahid Khan did the same. Then Isuru pointed out that he had earlier posted details of the film Phantom of the Hills.

I am thankful to all of them.

This image from Isuru.
