Life
'Sangdil' established Shammi as one of yesteryear's most talented actresses

Shammi was born as Nargis Rabadi. Her father, a priest, died when she was three. Her first film as a leading lady was Mukesh's 'Malhar,' but it didn't do well. Later she starred in 'Sangdil,' which established her as an actor. She married producer-director Sultan Ahmed, but they divorced after seven years. Shammi was the younger sister of famous Bollywood costume designer Mani Rabadi.

Tribute
Tributes pour in on social media

Designer Sandeep Khosla took to Twitter to announce the death. "We will miss you," he wrote. Amitabh Bachchan tweeted: "Shammi Aunty.. prolific actress, years of contribution to the Industry, dear family friend.. passes away..!!" "She was my mother's dear friend and someone we loved very much. May her soul rest in peace and her laughter and contagious smile rock the heavens," wrote Priya Dutt.
