To promote this, Rahul took to social media to share an image of himself from when he was 13. Alongside that, he posted: "Yup, that's me #WhenIWas13. Now that I've taken the plunge, what did you look like when you were 13? #poornathefilm."

Industry insiders soon joined Rahul and took a trip down the memory lane.

Veteran actress Shabana Azmi shared: "I used to wear white, place a candle under my chin and go around. Janki Kutir singing naina barse @ la Woh Kaun Thi."

Actress Tara Sharma Saluja recounted: "I was quite the 'muggu' studied a lot and I loved riding horses. I looked hilarious."

Celebrity photographer Atul Kasbekar wrote: "#WhenIWas13 I wanted to be Björn Borg and Sunil Gavaskar rolled into one. My wish came true - I played tennis ball cricket".

Composer Salim Merchant shared: "#WhenIWas13 I wanted to start my school band. We found a bass player and guitar player but no drummer. Finally got an ex-student who played drums"

Witnessing the growing participators, Rahul tweeted: "#WhenIWas13 has struck a chord! That age when we think we've grown up, blissfully unaware the game's just started."
