It was the launch of a book about her. I only know her through the film 36 Chowringhee Lane, that she directed- it was produced by Shashi Kapoor (how that happened was a good story). I was very impressed at the time. The three major actors led by Jennifer Kapoor were excellent. I did find Chowringhee Lane recently, but not no. 36. Anyway, it was an engaging conversation with the author Suman Ghosh and another actor Anjan Dutt who tended to speak out of turn,, and a lot more than necessary. She is 80, but looked around 60.
Anyway, my respect for Tolly Club went up- after a debate earlier, and now this.. organised by their Library, it seems.
