Furthermore, when asked what she would do if allowed to switch her career for a day, Dimple replied, "I always wanted to be a race car driver. Woh Formula One driver nahin hote? Bachpan se shaukh tha."

Despite not having an official Instagram account, Dimple stated that she finds it unnecessary to be a part of the social media rat race; however, she revealed that she enjoys scrolling through Instagram and being an observer.

Dimple also reacted to people referring to her as an icon, stating, "It’s lovely that people have accepted and loved me for who I am, and I’m so thankful to them but I do not consider myself a star or an icon."

On the work front, Dimple was last seen in the Netflix series Murder Mubarak, which also featured Vijay Varma, Sara Ali Khan, Aashim Gulati, Karisma Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Sanjay Kapoor, Suhail Nayyar, and Tisca Chopra.
