Sharmila Tagore created quite an uproar when she appeared in a bikini for a magazine photoshoot in the mid-sixties. Indian actresses dressed more modestly back than and posing in a swimsuit was unheard of. The actress` bold move, which has been lauded over the years, was hugely criticised back then.
The 79-year-old actress graced the couch on Koffee With Karan season 8 episode 10 with son Saif Ali Khan. The conversation began with the infamous bikini photos as a topic. Host Karan Johar, while eulogizing Sharmila, said, "Not only were you a huge megastar, you broke ground. Your famous bikini shot..." Sharmila chuckled.
