Not Rajesh Khanna, Rishi Kapoor, or Sunny Deol, Dimple Kapadia was once this actor’s crush, He would watch her from afar, but later married…, actor is…

Dimple Kapadia is one of those actresses in Bollywood who made a name for herself in the industry. She made her debut opposite Rishi Kapoor with the film Bobby. The movie proved to be a huge hit and made Dimple a star. Over the years, Dimple gave several hits and was paired opposite many actors. At the age of 15, Dimple married the first superstar of India, Rajesh Khanna. The two got married even before Dimple Kapadia’s debut film was released in 1973.

Dimple Kapadia stepped away from acting after her marriage to Rajesh Khanna. She embraced family life, focusing on raising their daughters, Twinkle Khanna and Rinke Khanna, both of whom had short-lived careers in the film industry.

When Dimple Kapadia was set to make her debut, rumours floated that the two were romantically involved. However, there was one actor who admired Dimple so much that he once admitted to being captivated by her aura. This actor fell madly in love with Dimple, and then destiny brought them together.

While they never became husband and wife, this actor worked with Dimple in 12 movies. If you are wondering which actor we are talking about, then he is none other than Jackie Shroff. Jackie Shroff once confessed to being mesmerized by Dimple Kapadia’s beauty after seeing her in Bobby.

Jackie Shroff was quoted as saying, “I watched Dimple Kapadia’s movie Bobby on its opening day and couldn’t stop staring at her. During a month-long acting course in Mumbai, I would see Dimple visiting the same building in the evenings to meet Sadhana ji, and I would watch her from afar, captivated by her presence.”

“When I found out that I would be collaborating with her on Allah Rakha, I couldn’t help but gaze at her throughout the filming. She had a way of engaging with everyone on the set—whether it was a spot boy, a producer, or an assistant—making no distinctions in her treatment of them. After that, we ended up working together on 12 films,” Jackie Shroff added.

Jackie Shroff and Dimple Kapadia worked together in several films over the course of their careers, but they were never romantically linked. Jackie has mentioned that he shares a close friendship with Dimple and holds deep respect and appreciation for her presence in his life.

Jackie married Ayesha Shroff.
