sshfs is mounted, but no file shared?

I am having some issue with sshfs. It used to work in the same condition. I mount Downloads directory from my desktop to my laptop.

Now when I try to do it, everything seems to work fine, except no file/dir is visible in the mointpoint directory.

I use the following command to mount:

sshfs [email protected]:/home/laptopuser/Downloads  /home/laptopuser/mnt/mnt

When I cat /proc/mounts, I get this:

[email protected]:/home/desktopuser/Downloads  /home/laptopuser/mnt/mnt fuse.sshfs rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000 0 0

everything seems to work fine except I am not getting any file/directory shared. When I create a file in mointpoint, I am not getting it on desktop.

I really don't know what I am doing wrong here. Any help ?
