MUMBAI: Sumbul Touqeer aka Imlie has managed to touch our hearts with her powerful performance. The actress has become a household name and is loved for her character of Imlie.

Recently, she was asked about the best compliment that she has received till date to which she replied, "The best compliment I have received I've ever received is something that I have not only got to know from 1 person but from 10-15 people. I have often been told that 'I remind people of the late Smita Patil as an actor'. And that is the best compliment I have ever received. I don't think there's a bigger joy than being compared to a legendary actress like Smita Patil."

Sumbul has also been part of the Bollywood film Article 15 starring Ayushmann Khurana.
