Her fringe haircut – the Sadhana cut – caught on with the masses as did her dress sense.  She was a style icon on par with Hollywood’s Audrey Hepburn.  The popularity of her hairstyle in India was the equivalent of Jennifer Aniston’s from Friends!  Sadhana soon retired from film as she was diagnosed with thyroid disorder.  She was treated for it in Boston.  Sadhana stopped making public appearances as she wanted everyone to remember her as the stunning film icon, but she remained in touch with her industry friends like Asha Parekh, Helen and Waheeda Rahman. Sadhana directed a film in 1989 starring Dimple Kapadia.

In 2002, Sadhana did make an appearance at the IIFA’s where she received a Lifetime Achievement Award. She is Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s aunt.  Their mother, Babita, is Sadhana’s cousin.  During her later days, her niece Geeta and Aftab Shivdasani took care of her and even paid her hospital bills.  Sadhana married her Love in Simla director Ram Krishna Nayyar (RK Nayyar)  on March 6, 1966 after their love bloomed during the shooting.
