'''Dimple Kapadia''' (born 8 June 1957) is an Indian actress who predominantly appears in [[Bollywood|Hindi films]]. Born and raised in [[Mumbai]] by wealthy parents, she aspired to become an actress from a young age and received her first opportunity through her father's efforts to launch her in the film industry. She was discovered at age 14 by the filmmaker [[Raj Kapoor]], who cast her in the title role of his teen romance ''[[Bobby (1973 film)|Bobby]]'' (1973), which opened to major commercial success and gained her wide public recognition. Shortly before the film's release in 1973, she married the actor [[Rajesh Khanna]] and quit acting. Kapadia returned to films in 1984, two years after her separation from Khanna. Her comeback film ''[[Saagar (film)|Saagar]]'', which was released a year later, revived her career. Both ''Bobby'' and ''Saagar'' won her [[Filmfare Awards]] for [[Filmfare Award for Best Actress|Best Actress]]. Through her work over the decade, she established herself as one of Hindi cinema's leading female actors.{{sfn|Bumiller|1991|p=[https://archive.org/details/mayyoubemotherof00bumi/page/n205/mode/2up?q=dimple+kapadia 185]}}

While her initial roles often relied on her perceived beauty and sex appeal, Kapadia was keen to challenge herself and expand her range. She was among the first actresses who starred in women-centred Hindi action films but found greater favour with critics when she took on more dramatic roles in both mainstream and neorealist [[parallel cinema]]. Appearing in films ranging from marital dramas to literary adaptations, she played troubled women sometimes deemed reflective of her personal experience, and received acclaim for her performances in ''[[Kaash]]'' (1987), ''[[Drishti (film)|Drishti]]'' (1990), ''[[Lekin...]]'' (1991), and ''[[Rudaali]]'' (1993).<ref>{{cite news|quote=with movies like ''Kaash'', ''Drishti'', ''Lekin'', ''Rudaali'' and ''Leela'', she (Dimple) showed that off-beat films too are her forte.|newspaper=[[The Tribune (Chandigarh)|The Tribune]]|author=Miglani, Surendra|date=5 October 2003|access-date=19 September 2011|title=Parallel cinema|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2003/20031005/spectrum/feedback.htm|agency=Spectrum|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110627061930/http://www.tribuneindia.com/2003/20031005/spectrum/feedback.htm|archive-date=27 June 2011}}</ref> For her role as a [[Professional mourning|professional mourner]] in ''Rudaali'', she won the [[National Film Award for Best Actress]] and a [[Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress|Filmfare Critics Award]]. Kapadia followed with character roles in ''[[Gardish]]'' (1993) and ''[[Krantiveer]]'' (1994), the latter securing her a fourth Filmfare Award.

Starting in the mid 1990s, Kapadia became more selective about her work, and her screen appearances in the following decades were fewer. She was noted for her portrayal of middle-aged, complicated women courted by younger men in ''[[Dil Chahta Hai]]'' (2001) and the American production ''[[Leela (2002 film)|Leela]]'' (2002). Her later credits include leading roles in ''[[Hum Kaun Hai?]]'' (2004), ''[[Pyaar Mein Twist]]'' (2005), ''[[Phir Kabhi]]'' (2008), ''[[Tum Milo Toh Sahi]]'' (2010) and ''[[What the Fish]]'' (2013), but she attained more success with character roles in ''[[Being Cyrus]]'' (2006), ''[[Luck by Chance]]'' (2009), ''[[Dabangg]]'' (2010), ''[[Cocktail (2012 film)|Cocktail]]'' (2012) and ''[[Finding Fanny]]'' (2014). Some of these roles were cited in the media as a departure from the regular portrayals of women of her age in Hindi films. A role in the Hollywood thriller ''[[Tenet (film)|Tenet]]'' (2020) brought her further recognition. Kapadia is the mother of [[Twinkle Khanna]] and [[Rinke Khanna]], both of whom are former actresses.

According to Govind Nihalani, the director of ''Drishti'' (1990), Kapadia has a genuine interest in serious work that would challenge her talent and realise her potential.

Kapadia said her involvement in independent films was a conscious decision to experiment in different cinema and prove her abilities.<ref name="IT93"/> When questioned about her hiatus after ''Rudaali'' at her career peak, Kapadia said she needed space and that generally her "career has always been secondary" to her.<ref name="ffiv"/> Her infrequent work since then, which manifested in numerous gaps between her screen appearances, has gained her a reputation for being selective about her work.{{sfn|Chopra|2014a}}<ref>{{cite news |last1=Ramnath |first1=Nandini |title=Interview Dimple Kapadia on her career and fishbowl life |url=https://www.livemint.com/Leisure/Z7CfUjjKNyAVqgy3MFsD2O/Interview--Dimple-Kapadia-on-her-career-and-fishbowl-life.html |access-date=31 May 2020 |work=Mint |publisher=HT Media |date=4 December 2013 |archive-date=6 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131206065034/http://www.livemint.com/Leisure/Z7CfUjjKNyAVqgy3MFsD2O/Interview--Dimple-Kapadia-on-her-career-and-fishbowl-life.html |url-status=live }}</ref> She attributed this to the lack of worthy offers and the "huge effort" expended in film acting, which consumes time otherwise spent on her family and private life.<ref name="Sahani">{{cite news |last1=Sahani |first1=Alaka |title=Dimple Kapadia: Forty years on, I am still living off 'Bobby' |url=http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/dimple-kapadia-forty-years-on-i-am-still-living-off-bobby/1204072/0 |access-date=23 April 2020 |work=The Indian Express |date=6 December 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Jha |first1=Subhash K. |title=A book on my life?

Born and raised in [[Mumbai]] by wealthy parents, she aspired to become an actress from a young age and received her first opportunity through her father's efforts to launch her in the film industry. She was discovered at age 14 by the filmmaker [[Raj Kapoor]], who cast her in the title role of his teen romance ''[[Bobby (1973 film)|Bobby]]'' (1973), which opened to major commercial success and gained her wide public recognition. Shortly before the film's release in 1973, she married the actor [[Rajesh Khanna]] and quit acting. Kapadia returned to films in 1984, two years after her separation from Khanna. Her comeback film ''[[Saagar (film)|Saagar]]'', which was released a year later, revived her career. Both ''Bobby'' and ''Saagar'' won her [[Filmfare Awards]] for [[Filmfare Award for Best Actress|Best Actress]]. Through her work over the decade, she established herself as one of Hindi cinema's leading female actors.{{sfn|Bumiller|1991|p=[https://archive.org/details/mayyoubemotherof00bumi/page/n205/mode/2up?q=dimple+kapadia 185]}} - -While her initial roles often relied on her perceived beauty and sex appeal, Kapadia was keen to challenge herself and expand her range. She was among the first actresses who starred in women-centred Hindi action films but found greater favour with critics when she took on more dramatic roles in both mainstream and neorealist [[parallel cinema]]. Appearing in films ranging from marital dramas to literary adaptations, she played troubled women sometimes deemed reflective of her personal experience, and received acclaim for her performances in ''[[Kaash]]'' (1987), ''[[Drishti (film)|Drishti]]'' (1990), ''[[Lekin...]]'' (1991), and ''[[Rudaali]]'' (1993).<ref>{{cite news|quote=with movies like ''Kaash'', ''Drishti'', ''Lekin'', ''Rudaali'' and ''Leela'', she (Dimple) showed that off-beat films too are her forte.|newspaper=[[The Tribune (Chandigarh)|The Tribune]]|author=Miglani, Surendra|date=5 October 2003|access-date=19 September 2011|title=Parallel cinema|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2003/20031005/spectrum/feedback.htm|agency=Spectrum|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110627061930/http://www.tribuneindia.com/2003/20031005/spectrum/feedback.htm|archive-date=27 June 2011}}</ref> For her role as a [[Professional mourning|professional mourner]] in ''Rudaali'', she won the [[National Film Award for Best Actress]] and a [[Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress|Filmfare Critics Award]]. Kapadia followed with character roles in ''[[Gardish]]'' (1993) and ''[[Krantiveer]]'' (1994), the latter securing her a fourth Filmfare Award. - -Starting in the mid 1990s, Kapadia became more selective about her work, and her screen appearances in the following decades were fewer. She was noted for her portrayal of middle-aged, complicated women courted by younger men in ''[[Dil Chahta Hai]]'' (2001) and the American production ''[[Leela (2002 film)|Leela]]'' (2002). Her later credits include leading roles in ''[[Hum Kaun Hai?]]'' (2004), ''[[Pyaar Mein Twist]]'' (2005), ''[[Phir Kabhi]]'' (2008), ''[[Tum Milo Toh Sahi]]'' (2010) and ''[[What the Fish]]'' (2013), but she attained more success with character roles in ''[[Being Cyrus]]'' (2006), ''[[Luck by Chance]]'' (2009), ''[[Dabangg]]'' (2010), ''[[Cocktail (2012 film)|Cocktail]]'' (2012) and ''[[Finding Fanny]]'' (2014). Some of these roles were cited in the media as a departure from the regular portrayals of women of her age in Hindi films. A role in the Hollywood thriller ''[[Tenet (film)|Tenet]]'' (2020) brought her further recognition. Kapadia is the mother of [[Twinkle Khanna]] and [[Rinke Khanna]], both of whom are former actresses. +My ball sack is humongous lol ==Background and personal life== '

Kapadia followed with character roles in ''[[Gardish]]'' (1993) and ''[[Krantiveer]]'' (1994), the latter securing her a fourth Filmfare Award.', 27 => '', 28 => 'Starting in the mid 1990s, Kapadia became more selective about her work, and her screen appearances in the following decades were fewer. She was noted for her portrayal of middle-aged, complicated women courted by younger men in ''[[Dil Chahta Hai]]'' (2001) and the American production ''[[Leela (2002 film)|Leela]]'' (2002). Her later credits include leading roles in ''[[Hum Kaun Hai?]]'' (2004), ''[[Pyaar Mein Twist]]'' (2005), ''[[Phir Kabhi]]'' (2008), ''[[Tum Milo Toh Sahi]]'' (2010) and ''[[What the Fish]]'' (2013), but she attained more success with character roles in ''[[Being Cyrus]]'' (2006), ''[[Luck by Chance]]'' (2009), ''[[Dabangg]]'' (2010), ''[[Cocktail (2012 film)|Cocktail]]'' (2012) and ''[[Finding Fanny]]'' (2014). Some of these roles were cited in the media as a departure from the regular portrayals of women of her age in Hindi films. A role in the Hollywood thriller ''[[Tenet (film)|Tenet]]'' (2020) brought her further recognition. Kapadia is the mother of [[Twinkle Khanna]] and [[Rinke Khanna]], both of whom are former actresses.' ]
