She went to star in several Bollywood hits likeKashmir Ki Kali, Anupama, An Evening in Paris, Aradhana, Amar Prem, Chupke Chupke and Aa Gale Lag Jaa.

Now, in a recent interview, the actress talked about what she felt during that time and the reaction she faced. Speaking toFilm Companion, Tagore said, My life choices, looking back, have been unconventional. Like the bikini shot for Filmfare in 1966, that people dont ever let me forget. A few days back, her granddaughter Sara Ali Khan opened up on the relationship she shared with her.Khan said, Im very lucky to have a grandmother like her because she is very warm. She is amazing. She epitomises dignity and grace. And shes also an extremely maternal and loving grandmother. She added, If I watch Aradhana, and Mere Sapno ki Rani, Im like, Oh my God, thats my dadi! Like, are you serious? Because shes just superb, you know, shes a star. I think shes the first star in my opinion. So sometimes its almost confusing for me, like, really that lady is my grandmother! You know, its weird. It is very strange. But, I mean, shes amazing. And Im very lucky to have her in my life. On December 8, Sharmila Tagore celebrated her birthday. Several Bollywood celebrities wished the veteran actress on social media. Kareena Kapoor Khan had a lovely post for the veteran actress and even lovelier was the picture that she shared.
