Today is the birth anniversary of Nirupa Roy, a popular Bollywood actress of old times.She played lead roles in her early films but was more popular in mythological roles.
She played the quintessential mother in most of the films , even a mother to Amitabh Bachchan and Shashi Kapoor. She appeared in close to 250 films, the popular among them being Do Beegha Zameen,Munim ji, Rani Roopmati, Chhaya,Maa, Muqaddar ka Sikandar, Deewar,Amar Akbar Anthony and many others. She roles she played were of a mother impoverished and pathetic - one of the exceptions being the film Jai Chittor in which she played a Queen and did full justice with the role.
She also earned the sobriquet 'Queen of Misery' pointing to the roles she played.
She won many awards for her memorable roles.
Our humble tributes !
