There are not too many filmmakers in Hindi filmdom who attempt to make a film in English, but Dimple says, “It didn’t matter to me whether it’s an English film as long as I was working with Homi Adajania.”

“The script was brilliant and the role was lovely, which I thoroughly enjoyed doing. So, it didn’t really matter to me. My concern is with what I’m doing, and I’m happy doing that,” Dimple, who had worked in the director’s dark drama Being Cyrus, said. And she’s happier that the family loves the promos of Finding Fanny.

Dimple may be seen as an accomplished and strong actress, but the Kaash and Rudaali star, who displayed her versatility in films like Zakhmi Sher, Arjun, Aitbaar and Drishti, is not yet creatively satisfied.

“I’m not satisfied in the sense I am not looking for any roles, but I do make peace with myself saying that ‘I am not the best in the world’. But I have tried to give my best and I want to get better.”

“That struggle will remain till the time I really feel that I have achieved it in my head. I keep falling short,” the 57-year-old said. “At the moment I am very happy and the scripts and feedback I am getting is making me feel happier. It just helps me to choose my roles better,” she added.

She became an overnight star with Bobby, but turned her back on stardom to marry Rajesh Khanna, Bollywood’s first superstar. But the acting kept her bugging and after a decade of absence, she returned with “Saagar. Meanwhile, her marriage hit rock bottom and she started living separately with her two daughters—Twinkle and Rinkie.

But as Dimple said with time things change, her relationship with her estranged husband took a turn for the better. In fact, she stayed by Rajesh Khanna’s side when his health started deteriorating and was with him till he breathed his last in 2012.
