Missing: What is 'Tum Bin' girl doing after 19 years of the movie's release?

  • As a film that introduced four new faces, none with a background in the movies, <em>Tum Bin</em> proved to be quite the audience-puller of 2001. With her innocent eyes and a serene appearance, Pia, the desolate girl central to the melancholic love-story, connected instantly with the audience of <em>Tum Bin</em>. It was expected that the actress who had essayed this despondent girl would have a long run in the industry.
