'Enough about me': Dimple Kapadia's unexpected remark once left Saiyaara's Rajesh Kumar stunned

Rajesh Kumar was recently seen in Saiyaara playing the role of Aneet Padda's dad. He is popularly known as Rosesh Kumar from the TV sitcom, Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai, which starred Ratna Pathak Shah and Rupali Ganguly. Recently, in an interview, the actor opened up about how there's a lack of conversation between an experienced and a successful person. He talked about how he made an effort to bond with his co-stars while filming Saiyaara to build an emotional bond that would reflect on the screen as well. During the same interview, he remembered a special and beautiful moment from his past, a conversation with Bollywood diva Dimple Kapadia.

“Enough about me — can I get to know you now?” That one line from Dimple Kapadia stayed with Rajesh Kumar long after the shoot wrapped. In a recent interview with Galatta India, the Sarabhai vs Sarabhai actor fondly recalled a beautiful moment he shared with the veteran actress while filming Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya in Jaisalmer.

Rajesh revealed that while they were shooting in Jaisalmer, during a shift break, a few people were sitting around — Dimple Kapadia included. Everyone started talking about her films, her iconic songs, her performances — it was all about her. But then, Dimple Kapadia did something unexpected. After a few minutes, she smiled and said, "Okay, okay, enough about me… can I get to know you all now?"

That simple question changed the tone of the conversation completely. For Rajesh Kumar, that's when the real conversation started. According to him, the general notion is to shower praise on a successful person one meets and then move on, and the other person just politely expresses gratitude. He reflected on how rare it is to have genuine human interactions in the fast-paced world of film sets. He mentioned how actors spend 12 hours a day working together, but do not even know each other's stories. But his moment with Dimple Kapadia continues to remind him of how much actors miss out in their work environment if they are not making efforts to connect.
