আশা পারেখ প্রথম কোন ছবির পরিচালনা করেন ?
Parekh started her career as a child artist under the screen name Baby Asha Parekh. Famed film director Bimal Roy saw her dance at a stage function and cast her at the age of ten in "Maa (1952 film)" and then repeated her in "Baap Beti" (1954). The latter film's failure disappointed her, and even though she did a few more child roles, she quit to resume her schooling. At sixteen she decided to try acting again, and to make her debut as a heroine, but she was rejected from Vijay Bhatt's "Goonj Uthi Shehnai" (1959) in favour of actress Ameeta, because the filmmaker claimed she was not star material. Precisely eight days later, film producer Subodh Mukherjee and writer-director Nasir Hussain cast her as the heroine in "Dil Deke Dekho" (1959) opposite Shammi Kapoor, which made her a huge star.
