Her name is Parveen Dastur. She played the role of Seema in the film. But despite the film being a blockbuster, her career could not move forward. A few years ago, Parveen said goodbye to acting and became a full-fledged hair stylist.

Born in Mumbai, Parveen Dastur had no connection with the film industry. She started modeling during her college days. A director saw her and asked her to audition for a play. Parveen got selected in the audition and thus began her journey as an actress.

In an interview with ETimes, she revealed that she later became a hair stylist. Parveen Dastur said, ‘I was getting such offers in which there was nothing much to do. I have also been an air hostess for 15 years and also tried my hand in theater, but hair styling was always my passion, so I did a course in New York. Now I have my own small setup and I have been a hair stylist for the last 25 years.

After marriage, Parveen became the mother of two daughters
Talking about her personal life, Parveen dated model-actor Shahrukh Irani for many years and then they got married in 1992. The couple has two daughters.
