In a 56-year acting career, she gave all-time classics such as "Kagaz Ke Phool", "Guide", Chaudhvin Ka Chand", "Teesri Kasam" and "Mujhe Jeene Do".
With no prior experience in acting, she always focussed on her director's brief.
"Whatever acting I did, it was with the help of my directors and my imagination. I used to do things to the best of my ability. I emphasised on my feelings and not so much on the technique," she said.
The big screen veteran has no plans to join TV.
