Chitrangda, known for her powerful screen presence and nuanced performances, reflected on the significance of being compared to such an esteemed actress.
Actor Prateik Babbar has officially changed his surname to his mother’s name. He is now Prateik Smita Patil.
Her strongest statement came when she directly addressed Raj Babbar’s absence from Prateik’s life, not just the wedding, “That family was never there."
“Prateik, my little brother, is getting married, and yet, as a family, we, the Babbars, haven’t been invited. It’s heartbreaking," said Aarya Babbar.
The restored version of Mahesh Bhatt's iconic film 'Arth' will debut at the MAMI Film Festival on October 20, showcasing its timeless themes of love and betrayal for a new generation.
Prateik Babbar honors his late mother, Smita Patil, by wearing a suit crafted from her Kanjeevaram sarees at the Mumbai screening of 'Manthan'.
Shyam Benegal's 'Manthan', starring Smita Patil, gets a prestigious screening at Cannes 2024, celebrating India's historic milk cooperative movement.
Actress Ratna Pathak Shah candidly discusses her early career, admitting she lacked the distinctiveness of Smita Patil or Shabana Azmi in the 1980s. She reflects on her journey and preference for ensemble roles.
"Remembering #Smita Patil on her birth anniversary. She went away 34 years ago but resides firmly in the hearts of cinemafiles," tweeted Azmi.
Smita Patil was married to actor-turned-politician Raj Babbar, and passed away in 1986 at the age of 31 due to some complications.
