Vidya Sinha typified a new kind of heroine in Hindi cinema

Instead of the skin-tight churidar-kurtas worn by the popular leading ladies of the time, Vidya Sinha, like Jaya Bhaduri, favoured cotton saris, and bindis.

Vidya Sinha was seen mostly in TV shows in her last few years

In 1974, a small, unassuming film called Rajnigandha came out, and Hindi cinema lovers fell in love with it.
