Tahira and I gave her a lift back home and we said “ma’am you are the real star of our film” and she replied “wish I get more work.” Tahira and I were speechless...We watched her frail demeanour walking towards her building. That’s my last memory of her’
On a closing note he wrote, I would request you to watch her recite
