Many actresses despite giving the biggest hits in the industry, fail to become a top heroine and get limited to mother and sisters' roles. One such actress, who made her debut at the age of 42, failed to be a top heroine despite giving hits to superstars like Shah Rukh Khan, Rishi Kapoor, and more.
The actress we are talking about has worked in over 120 films and is popularly known for her roles as strict mother-in-law and grandmother or compassionate mother. Her daughter is also an actress, Shah Rukh Khan's 'bestest friend." She is none other than Sushma Seth.
Sushma Seth made her Bollywood debut at the age of 42 in the movie Junoon in which she played Shashi Kapoor's aunt. Sushma Seth went on to play the role of mother and grandmother of many Bollywood performers including Rishi Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, Shahrukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor, and Preity Zinta.
She has starred in several Bollywood hits and blockbusters like Silsila, Prem Rog, Ram Teri Ganga Maili, Chandni, Deewana, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and Kal Ho Naa Ho. However, despite this, she failed to become a top actress. Sushma was last seen in the movie Noor and is now working with an NGO called Arpana, directing plays and dance dramas. Her daughter Divya Seth is also a popular television actress and Shah Rukh Khan's 'bestest friend'.
Shah Rukh Khan once shared an image with her on Twitter and called her his ‘bestest friend’ and wrote, “My bestest friend Divya, who taught me acting. Don’t hold the bad ones I do, only the good inspired by her teachings.” Divya and Shah Rukh Khan’s friendship dates back to their acting school days. They took training together at Barry John acting classes and they both also started together in Lekh Tandon’s show Dil Darya.
