Like the woman in red, Simi Garewal is the woman in white - the epitome of elegance and style. A celebrity of sorts herself, she has interviewed some of the most camera shy personalities on stage and got away with it. She managed to evoke response from media shy Ratan Tata, Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan, Kumaramangalam Birla and wife Nirja, and even close-mouthed Hema Malini who spoke about Dharmendra, her relationship and daughters on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal.

Young Simi offered fleeting glimpses of herself in films like Mera Naam Joker, Chalte Chalte and Siddharth. Then there was Rukhsat with Mithun Chakraborthy and Anuradha Patel, her directorial debut and a few documentaries. She came into the limelight with an exclusive documentation of late Rajiv Gandhi, who she captured on film over a period of five years. Few such celebrity hosts possess oomph, poise and charisma.
