In a recent episode of The Kapil Sharma Show, veteran actress Zeenat Aman shared her fascinating journey to secure the role of Rupa in the iconic 1978 film Satyam Shivam Sundaram, directed by Raj Kapoor. During her time working on another film, Waqeel Babu, she frequently heard Raj Kapoor discuss his vision for the character of Rupa, which ignited her desire to be part of the project. To impress Kapoor, Zeenat decided to visit RK Studio dressed in a manner she believed embodied his vision for Rupa. Her appearance captivated Kapoor, who promptly called his wife, Krishna Kapoor, to the studio. She gifted Zeenat gold ginnies, and Raj Kapoor declared, 'You are my Rupa.' The film, which also starred Shashi Kapoor as Rajeev, tells the poignant story of Rupa, who suffers a facial disfigurement from a fire accident. Rajeev, an engineer overseeing a dam project, falls in love with her, unaware of her scars until after their marriage. This film remains a significant part of Indian cinema history, showcasing themes of love and acceptance.
