Asha Bhosle's acting debut.
Around the time of the release, Asha Bhosle grand daughter Anneka Sinclair Jenns gave a interview in which she stated
"I had a very difficult childhood and my family life was tumultuous. Having grown up in rural India, my father made the decision to enrol me in a Catholic convent. The standard of education was extremely low with greater emphasis on "moral" education. At the age of 16 when I was finally able to move to the UK, it was evident how inadequate my education was and unfortunately the two years of A-levels was insufficient time to make up the huge gap in my education.Furthermore, I had a learning disability which was only later diagnosed in my thirties. As a result, I never completed my A-Levels and the two years were only sufficient to complete a portfolio for art school. Although art school was a viable option it wasn't necessarily the best fit either given I did not have much interest or talent as an artist. Eventually I left university with a lower second degree. I graduated in 2009 with a degree in Visual Communication and subsequently completed a Masters in Curating from the University of Arts.Although during my time as a curator I was fortunate to work on interesting projects, the art world is notorious for unpaid or low paid work. Having graduated in the midst of the 2008 financial crash and without parental support, my average week included juggling 3 jobs; Working nights in pubs/clubs to make up the shortfall. I met several young persons, equally qualified, who were struggling to maintain a decent living and I became disillusioned with the exploitative environment of the art world.
It was during this time I became increasingly interested in social justice and politics. The troubles of my childhood, witnessing mistreatment of women in India and the financial hardships later as a young person all led me to want to practice law. I felt that I could no longer be a bystander. In 2016 I decided to undertake the law conversion course. However, as passionate as I was, the GDL was an experiment. I was convinced, given my purely art-based background, that I would struggle with a law degree. However, I really enjoyed it and had a natural aptitude for law, eventually getting a distinction. It was during the GDL that I decided to go down the barrister route. "
