Veteran actress, Dimple Kapadia is one of the most gorgeous actresses of all time. At the mere age of 14, she was discovered by the late legendary actor, Raj Kapoor, who had cast her opposite his son, Rishi Kapoor, in the evergreen film, Bobby (1973). The actress had become a national crush within days after the film's release but leaving all the fame behind, Dimple had decided to tie the knot with the man of her dreams, Rajesh Khanna, in 1973. Together they had welcomed two daughters, Rinkie Khanna and Twinkle Khanna.

However, soon they had parted ways with each other in 1984 and two years after their separation, Dimple Kapadia had made her comeback to the film industry with the film, Saagar (1985).

Once in a conversation with renowned Indian poet and journalist, Pritish Nandy on his celebrity talk show, The Pritish Nandy Show, popular actress, Dimple Kapadia opened up about her marriage with late superstar, Rajesh Khanna and the reason behind their separation. Reflecting on the fact that they had parted ways despite welcoming two daughters, Rinkie Khanna and Twinkle Khanna, in their lives, Dimple had stated that both she and Rajesh were two completely different kinds of people, which she had realised after their marriage. However, she had also added that she was never a superstar. Thus, she couldn't realise what was going on in her ex-husband's head at that time. Dimple had stated:

"I think we were two very different kind of people. I was probably very young to understand what was happening to this man, who was a superstar. I have never been able to understand stars and their behaviour pattern at all because I am not one myself. I just couldn't understand."

"We were going to Ahmedabad on a private flight for a function. I was born dramatic. Bachpan se drama ka shauk bohot jyada tha. He sat next to me. I was looking at him. Rajesh Khanna, I mean come on guys, give me a break. I very chalaak-ly told him, ‘Wahan toh bohot crowd hoga, bheed hogi. Aap mera haath pakdoge na?’ He said, 'Haan bilkul', I replied, 'Hamesha ke liye?' And the rest is history. It happened."
