Having done over a hundred movies in the 1970s and 1980s, Reena Roy was among the most popular actors of her time.
But she gave it all up for a special reason.
Reena makes the disclosure to Subhash K Jha before her 66th birthday on January 7 -- "I decided to take a break to look after my daughter."
You were a massive star in the 1970s, but somehow, you didn't get the recognition that you deserved.
Do you think so? I was working like crazy.
I never stopped to think about what I deserved. Jo Mila mainly use khush (1 was happy with what I got).
Now I am into looking after my home and daughter.
I am not a multi-tasker.
I did more than a hundred films in the '70s and '80s. Now. I am in my household.
Which are your favorite films?
I like J Om Prakashji's Aasha and Rajkumar Kohli's Nagin the most.
Nagin gave me a chance to play the avenging hero. I killed so many heroes in that film! Sheesha is my most recognized film.
The songs that Lata Mangeshkar sang for you, like Ab Ke Sawan Mein Jee Dare from Jaise Ko Taisa, Sheesha Ho Ya Dil Ho from Aasha and Pardes Jake Pardesiya from Arpan played a huge part in shaping your career.
Oh huge! When Lataji sang for me, I had to do nothing but follow her voice.
Even today, I am known by her song Sheesha Ho Ya Dil Ho. It became the signature tune of my career.
Does the song also reflect the truth about your life?
My tears have all dried up. Now, I laugh at every adversity.
