Sometime back, a rare unseen picture from Dipika Chikhlia Topiwala’s wedding featuring Bollywood’s first superstar, late Rajesh Khanna had emerged on social media. Rajesh Khanna had posed standing alongside the bride and the groom, Dipika and Hemant. For the uninitiated, Rajesh Khanna and Dipika had shared the screen space in three movies. Their throwback picture from Dipika and Hemant’s wedding had surely made everyone nostalgic. ICYMI, here’s the picture:
In a throwback interview with Yogesh Mishra, Dipika Chikhlia Topiwala had recalled an incident that had taken place when her stardom was at the peak. Dipika had stated, “I was very young that time during Ramayan TV serial. People used to touch my feet. I will not mention the name. I had gone to Delhi to do a show for a renowned person. His grandparents did sashtang pranaam. That time I was having lunch. Immediately I kept my plate there and got up. I was embraced. People who are even elder than my parents are doing sasthang pranaam to me. I hold them and allowed them to sit. I felt guilty. First time in my life I felt ashamed. Finally, I dared to say that I am not Sita. I am an actor. She said 'yes I know you are not Sita. You are an actor. We see you in TV. But you tell me, there are lot of girls in India but why you only got this role'. I was shocked to listen her logic. I could not say anything after that, but that conversation left a big impact on my life. That time I realised that I need to respect this role and the image because people don’t look at me as a Dipika, they look at me as a Sita and I have responsibility towards those fans of mine.” (Also Read: Unseen Pictures Of Riteish Deshmukh And Genelia D'Souza's Maharashtrian Wedding You Just Can't Miss!)
