Presently, staying with her husband and ad guru Shantanu Sheorey and son Siddhant at her beautiful house in Goa, Kimi made her Bollywood debut as a supporting actress in the film, 'Patthar Dil' at the age of twenty in 1985. Still remembered as the 'Jumma Girl' by her fans for her dance and performance in the film 'Hum', Kimi featured in the film 'Adventures of Tarzan' alongside Hemant Birje in 1985 and even though the film failed at the box office, the actress caught everyone's attention with her bold act in the film.
