To return to the thread about Humperdinck and the Indian claim (no, indeed, 
'aapro' Zubin would not qualify as being a Goenkar, not even if he owned a 
sumptuous mansion in Arpora). Two names from the talkies are what came to mind 
- Vivian Leigh and Merle Oberon. Leigh ('Gone With The Wind' and 'A Streetcar 
Named Desire') was certainly born in India, though whether she was Anglo-Indian 
or British Indian is unclear to me. In an earlier generation was Oberon. She 
was Anglo-Indian, claimed to be from Tasmania, was said to have a family there 
that was part Chinese, and remained mysterious and beautiful to the end.
