    The life and times of Rakhee Gulzar



    Bengali theatre and film actor Chaiti Ghoshal met Rakhee Gulzar in the early ’80s, when she was just a star-struck teenager. Chaiti was at that time making her debut in Aparna Sen’s path-breaking woman-centric film Parama (1984). Rakhee played a 40-something homemaker who was ostracised by her husband and other family members after her liaison with a photographer was revealed. Chaiti played Rakhee’s daughter who empathised with her predicament at the end of the film. “The first thing that struck me about Rakheedi, as she is fondly known in Kolkata, was her ethereal beauty — we had just seen a fraction of her real beauty on screen all these years,” recalls Chaiti.
