Pooja Deol and Tanya Deol are the daughters-in-law of Bollywood superstar Dharmendra. However, they have stayed away from the glitz and glamour of the media. However, there is a third daughter-in-law who is from the Deol family, an actress who ruled the screen in the 90s. She was a well-known figure in the film industry and was a popular household name in the Doordarshan show. She worked extensively in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada films.
Her first on-screen appearance was in Sanjay Gupta’s Ram Shastra. After a rocky start with a few early films that struggled at the box office, her luck changed with a role in the Aamir Khan-starrer "Mann," which earned Rs 35.45 crore and became a significant hit.
