Zeenat Aman shared a post for her late mother Vardhini Scharwachter on Instagram. She wrote, "She was a practising Hindu and she epitomised the ideas of tolerance, love and empowerment. Her faith did not stop her from marrying my father Amanullah Khan." "Later, after they had separated, she...married a wonderful German man, whom I called Uncle Heinz," Zeenat added.
