Dr Lubna Al Kazi, one of Kuwait's leading social scientists and Director of Women's Research and Studies Centre was born in Mumbai, India. She lived her girlhood years in Mumbai, studying in a convent school, a member of girl scouts where she had the first lesson in leadership. Here, in Sadaaqa she speaks of those early years in India, of enjoying the Mumbai rain, borrowing books from the makeshift neighbourhood libraries, of buying burnt corn, of meeting the legendary Dileep Kumar and Waheeda Rehman during Eid festivities (Dileep Kumar later named his niece Lubna after her), of Holi and Diwali in Mahabalipuram, of meeting the Beatles during their visit to India and of her legendary uncle Ebrahim AL Kazi who refused to leave India and moulded the theatrical arts of India. This and so much more of those heady years.
