[edit] Career
She started her career in 1976 in Anurodh. She is younger to Dimple Kapadia by one and half years and made her acting debut in Anurodh (1977) opposite her then brother-in-law, Rajesh Khanna. The film's director Shakti Samanta said that although the film had an interesting story, he felt that audiences didn't want to see the leading man pursue his real life sister-in-law.[1] During the years that followed, she acted in numerous movies. Her roles included: a sensual dancer in "Lootmaar"; a vamp in "Pyar Ke do pal"; a desirable thief in "Shaaka"; and a role in "Jeevan Dhara".
Simple Kapadia stopped her acting career in 1986 after 10 years. She is now one of the top dress designers in Bollywood having won the National Award in 1994 for her costumes in Rudaali.[citation needed]
