Dimple kapadia

Dimple Kapadia may come across as a highly self-assured and clear-headed individual in her words, actions and onscreen portrayals. However, in reality, the actor admits her thoughts are often clouded with doubts, and lack of confidence. Surprisingly, this quality has worked in her favour throughout her career. She reasons, “The fear factor and not being confident has played such a significant role in my life that had I not jumped off (from a decided path). I don’t think I would have ever reached anywhere.” Dimple Kapadia was recently seen in the web show Saas, Bahu and Flamingo on Disney + Hotstar. She cites a recent incident as an example where she exhausted all possible means, including seeking assistance from her legal counsel, in an attempt to extricate herself from Saas, Bahu and Flamingo — a web show for which she is garnering praise from all quarters. “When the show was offered to me, there was a hit and a miss. It was offered and then I was told that somebody else is doing it. But I was very keen on being a part of it despite all the fears. However, after I came on board, for at least three months before the shoot began, I was trying hard to get out of it,” she continues, “Two days before the shoot, I tried to see if I could whip up some sympathy from somewhere. I even asked to call up the lawyer and find out. Every trick I tried, I failed miserably and I’m glad I failed.” It’s not just about this project, as the 66-year-old reveals that she had no plans to resume ...

In 2023, Kapadia has had three releases so far – two blockbuster movies Pathaan and Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, and Disney Plus Hotstar series Saas, Bahu aur Flamingo.

The eight-episode crime-drama series is created and directed by Homi Adajania, best known for Being Cyrus and Cocktail. The senior actor said she thoroughly enjoyed playing the feisty and powerful Savitri.
