Sharmila Tagore is like a force of nature. You can't take your eyes off her, even at the age of 78. In her latest film, Gulmohar, she plays a matriarch who has secrets of her own. The film has an old-world charm to it, and Sharmila's presence lends it a certain gravitas. Talking to her, you feel like you're talking to your grandmother and also to your college bestie. She's so alive, so in with the times, and is a font of nostalgia as well. You want to keep talking to her and listening to her stories forever. She takes you back into a bygone era when people were more gentle and time flowed at a less hurried pace. In a heart-to-heart interview, she talks about everything, about being related to Rabindranath Tagore, working with Satyajit Ray and Uttam Kumar to not play by the rules and yet reign in Hindi cinema. Excerpts:
