"My father taught history at Calcutta University but he had so many diverse interests. He was also a film critic, a theatre critic, and he sang very well. He wrote poems and novels, but he did it in a way that was rather wonderful: he'd suddenly say, âoh I wrote this poem yesterdayâ or he would say, âoh by the way, I'm going to be in this playâ. There was this sense that you can just do what you want to do."
