Leela

She was gentle in her ways yet firm in her resolve. She was at her most resourceful when she had the least. She was of quick mind, and she rose above obstacles and challenges.

She was always beautifully dressed in exquisite, self-embroidered sarees. She wore flowers in her hair. She was a Burmese gem, fearless and ever ready to conquer rough soils.

Leelavathy Singh (Leela Dutt) was a woman ahead of her time, and this is her story.
