Introduction: Pramila: Esther Victoria Abraham
from Pramila - Esther Victoria Abraham by SPARROW · host Sound & Picture Archives for Research On Women
1 of 6 | It has been a long journey for Esther Victoria Abraham, known as Pramila, to the film world. From a girl who stood under the foyer clock of her Calcutta school - punished for giggling and playing pranks - to a Hindi cinema actor in Bombay, from marriage to a celebrated actor to becoming a producer in her own right, Pramila has travelled a long way. The journey of this venturesome, vivacious woman has been marked by many road maps, many destinations. Not all these destinations have brought her joy but if one were to believe Pramila, all of them have been worth the journey.At eighty-one, when Pramila narrates her story, Pramila's mind is a treasure house of details and anecdotes that she never tires of narrating. From this narration emerges an insider's view of the Hindi film world and of the many women and men who formed a part of it, a part not often revealed.Learn more about SPARROW here: https://www.sparrowonline.org/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
