Indira’s Parents didn’t approve her Career?

The British actress Indira Varma, who began her acting journey with Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love, was born to an Indian father and a Swiss mother as their only child.

In an interview with Telegraph in January 2008, Indira revealed that her immigrant parents met each other at art school in London. She even said that her parents were usually mistaken for her grandparent who “was awful.”

In the same interview, she revealed that she developed her interest to become a mime artist. She explained-

"My parents were like, 'You're never going to make any money from that.' You have to go to drama school before you go to mime school, apparently. So I went to Rada."

Today, Indira has already marked her place in the film industry as one of the prominent actresses!
