Reflecting on her life, Hema admitted, “I have been so busy working all these years that I didn’t even realise where the time went by. I am 75 today, I can’t believe it myself! But age is just a number. It depends on how you look after yourself if others are inspired by the work you do. That’s life. I do the work that I get, spend time with my children and grandchildren. Life is beautiful.”
