Meanwhile, his younger brother Dinshaw had already become a star at Imperial Studios owned by Ardeshir Irani.

Playing a side character, Billimoria started off his journey in Hindi cinema with Punjab Mail.

Chandulal Shah's Ranjit Studios saw him pairing with Miss Gohar, Bibbo and Madhuri.

Some of his films at Ranjit are Baghdad Ka Badmash, Rough of Rajasthan and Toofani Taruni.

Years later, Dev Anand invited him to join his National Party of India, which made Billimoria overwhelmed by this kind gesture.
