“I can accept failure, but I can’t accept not trying .”
Sexy. Spirited. Survivor... My mantra in life has always been: If life throws lemons at me, I’ll make a darn good lemonade. And look my best while making it!
They say whatever doesn’t kill you, only makes you stronger. That’s how I see myself! I am Dimpy Ganguly Roy. It’s been six years since my first interview in ‘SAVVY’ and I feel really honoured to be on this wonderful magazine’s cover for the second time.
PAST RELOADED
Today, things are so different from what they were back then it feels like that was a different world altogether. In fact, sometimes it doesn’t even feel real.
But yes, I have faced all my turbulent challenges with a smile. People don’t realise the true power of a smile. It’s inspiring when you see it on others and it’s empowering when you see it on yourself! Although I still have a long way to go, I have realised just how much potential I must have to endure so much, at such a young age. All I’d like to say is that I have emerged more proud of myself than ever!
A ‘REALITY TV’ MARRIAGE & DIVORCE
My 28 years on this earth have been vividly colourful and eventful. A model and an actress, I entered a reality TV serial called ‘Swayamvar 2’ and ended up marrying Rahul Mahajan. After five years of a rollercoaster marriage where life was like a reality TV show filled with twists and turns, we finally got divorced! And just when even an ever-optimistic ‘me’ was getting bitter about the word ‘love’, I fell in love again with my childhood crush Rohit Roy, an engineer from Dubai. Today, I’m happily married with a delightful little baby girl Reanna.
