Veteran actor Simi Garewal says her westernised upbringing initially cause a hindrance in her acting career but she decided to deal with it by doing films with the likes of Satyajit Ray, Mrinal Sen and Raj Kapoor. While Garewal worked in Kapoor's Mera Naam Joker, she teamed up with Ray for Aranyer Din Ratri, with Mrinal Sen in Padatik and Raj Khosla in Do Badan. "I did face difficulties here but that was not due to other people. They were my own difficulties. Like my own upbringing had thrown up. My westernised upbringing initially did not help me fit within the industry at that time.
"Though if I would have come in now, I would have fit in well. When I came in, the industry was different. It was hard for me to fit in. Initially, there was a struggle. I did try and make the adjustments and tried to fit in. But I stayed the way I was," Garewal, who grew up in England, told PTI in an interview.
