Mumbai: Veteran Bollywood actress Vidya Sinha, known for films like Rajnigandha and Pati, Patni Aur Woh, passed away on Thursday in a city hospital following a brief illness.She was 71, and is survived by  a daughter.
The actress was diagnosed with lung disorder a few years ago, but her condition worsened over past three months. She was admitted to Criticare Hospital at Juhu  in a serious condition early this week, where she died during treatment Thursday noon.Born in Mumbai on November 15, 1947, to film producer Rana Pratap Singh, she started her professional career as a model and even had won the Miss Bombay contest. 
 
She made her film debut with renowned filmmaker Basu Chatterjee's film Rajnigandha, alongside Amol Palekar,  in 1974, post-marriage.She married Venkateshwaran Iyer in 1968, and the couple has a daughter, Jhanvi.
 
After her husband's death in 1996, she quit acting for some time, before she entered into a wedlock with Netaji B Salunkhe, a doctor,  in 2001.
