My Take
What strikes me about Ruby Myers, who reigned as Sulochana, is not just that she became one of the highest-paid actresses of the silent era, but that she refused to stay merely in front of the camera. Founding her own production house, Rubi Pics, in the mid-1930s took real nerve for a woman in that period, and I find that entrepreneurial streak more compelling than any role she played. The 1973 Dadasaheb Phalke Award feels less like a reward and more like overdue recognition. To me she represents the kind of early screen pioneer whose business instincts deserve as much remembering as her stardom.
