Simple Kapadia Passed Away | Dimple Kapdia Loses Little Sister
Dimple Kapadia is bereaved. Her younger sister Simple Kapadia breathed her last yesterday in a suburban hospital. The former actress-turned-costume designer had been undergoing treatment at various hospitals since the last few years.
It is believed that she was suffering from cancer but the family was always tight-lipped about it. A source said that the family was under terrible stress because of Simple's illness. They never spoke about it then and they will not speak about it even now.
Director Rahul Dholakia, who was present at the hospital when Simple breathed her last, said that his friend is no more. He really can't talk. Akshay Kumar is returning from Baramati, where he was shooting for Priyadarshan's next film.
Simple began her career when she was 18. She made her debut in 1977 with Anurodh, where she was paired opposite her brother-in-law Rajesh Khanna. Later, she worked in Hum Rahe Na Hum, Tumhare Bina, Jeevan Dhaara, Zamane Ko Dikhana Hai, Dulha Bikta Hai, Naseeb, Shakka, Lootmaar, Man Pasand, Ahsaas, Rehguzar, Chakravuyha and Pyar Ke Do Pal. She quit acting in 1986 after Pyar Ke Do Pal. Later in 1994, she worked as a costume designer for Rudaali and won a National award for it.
