Zohra Sehgal is having the last laugh. The industry that had little to offer her as a young woman can't get enough of her these days. From movies to ad-films, Zohra's expressive face fearlessly flaunts all kinds of emotions. At 96, the woman who says she used to look very plain enjoys the way she looks and claims is no famous than ever before. . . . 

Zohra Sehgal: What I really enjoyed was doing a silly film here in Bollywood called Chalo Ishq Ladaaye in which I slapped Govinda every five minutes and in which I rode a motorbike. That was the most enjoyable film. And on the stage in England I did a film as a Chinese because I look very Chinese; in Primary English Class with Orange Tree Theatre. It was so successful that it came to the Westend and played at the Windom. So these were the two roles I really enjoyed doing.  . . .
