Meet actress, who has given 5 hits with Rishi Kapoor, 10 with Mithun Chakraborty, yet regrets not working with THIS superstar, her name is…, last film was…
Born in November 1965, Padmini Kolhapure is considered one of the most popular actresses of 80s. In a career spanning over 40 years, she has appeared in more than 75 films, and mostly became superhits. The veteran actress is currently all set to make her television comeback after a 12-year hiatus. She will be seen portraying the character of Rajmata in the historical drama Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan. Her last TV appearance was in Ekk Nayi Pehchaan , that premiered on 23 December, 2013.
While, Padmini Kolhapure is highly-awaiting for her next venture, she recently revealed that one of her biggest regrets is not sharing screen-space with Amitabh Bachchan. In an interview with The Times of India, she expressed, 'One thing is for sure — I really missed out on working with Amitji. It was probably one of my biggest regrets, as I have worked with everyone else, and he is the only actor I haven't worked with.'
According to reports, Padmini was signed for the original cast of Silsila (1981) , which starred Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi. However, the role eventually went to Smita Patil, but it couldn't happen, and later Jaya Bachchan was finalised for the role.
For the unversed, Padmini Kolhapure was second among the three daughters of Pandharinath Kolhapure, a professional musician. Her elder sister, who is Shraddha Kapoor's mother, Shivangi Kolhapure, is a former actress. Her younger sister too, Tejaswini Kolhapure, is an actress. She is niece of legendary singers Asha Bhosle and Lata Mangeshkar. Married to film producer Pradeep Sharma, they have a son named Priyaank Sharma.
Padmini's last film appearance was in Ashutosh Gowariker's Panipat (2019), alongside Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Kapoor and Kriti Sanon.

OG Sita Dipika Chikhlia makes stunning claim over Arun Govil's playing Dasharath in Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana, says...
The magnum opus teaser of Ramayana, which is said to be the costliest film ever made in Bollywood, has finally been released. Nitesh Tiwari's epic mythological saga is set to give goosebumps to the audience. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, Yash as Ravana, and Ravi Dubey as Laxman. The highly anticipated movie will be released in two parts – while Part 1 will be released in 2026, the second part will hit the big screens in 2027. Despite the grand buzz around the upcoming Ramayana, for many, Ramanand Sagar's 1987 Ramayan continues to be the ultimate classic. Recently, it was revealed that Arun Govil, who famously portrayed Lord Ram in the 1987 series, will now play the role of King Dasharath, Ram's father, in the upcoming magnum opus. Dipika Chikhlia, who portrayed Sita in the iconic TV show, opened up on her views about casting Arun Govil. Dipika Chikhlia Seems Upset With Arun Govil's Casting in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Dipika told The Times of India, 'I have seen him as Ram and I've seen myself as Sita. For me to see him as Dasharath is really a little out of context.' Dipika called Arun's decision a 'personal choice' as he decided to play Dasharath after playing Lord Ram. 'I mean, if you played Ram, then you are Ram,' she said. Dipika is Unhappy About Not Being a Part of Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Dipika also shared her disappointment about not being offered a role in the new film. 'I was never approached. I guess they've not even bothered to speak to me about it,' she said. She further added that if the makers had approached her, then she would have agreed to play any role in the film Ramayana as she couldn't imagine playing any character other than Sita, which she played in Ramanand Sagar's Ramayana.
