Rakhee Gupta
THIS is one Bollywood actress who
cannot be slotted with an image. She started out as the Ruk Ruk Ruk girl

of the Everest

SHE
spent a night with us in Pune on her way back to England from a school
in the deep south where she had taught for ten weeks; enormous classes
of a hundred girls. Mary, let me call her that, had just finished at a

October to read French and German.

Ronald Ross could take time off from his pursuit of the malarial

complicated ragas on his esraj.
