Veteran actress Deepti Naval took to social media on Wednesday and shared an old black and white photo. In the picture she strikes a thoughtful mood.

"1981 -- Looks like I've run into a writer's block!" wrote the actor-author on her Instagram page.

In the 40-year-old picture, Deepti wears a skirt and a top, and is seen holding a pen and looking pensive.

The veteran actor's Instagram page was flooded with comments from fans.

"Ma'am just love your poems. Looking forward to reading them," wrote a user.

"Eagerly waiting for you to publish your childhood memoir," posted another.

"This is so innocent, pure and beautiful Deepti ji," wrote a user.
