When she was six, the Japanese bombed a hospital killing her mother and infant brother. She also recalls "the starvation" period during the Japanese occupation when her family moved to the country to her grandfather's home in order to survive. She was separated from her father during Operation Passage to Freedom after the partition of the country in 1954. She never saw him again. Year later, she learned that he was imprisoned for seven years because he had been an administrator for the French government and died as a beggar after he was released. She has since become an internationally acclaimed actress and philanthropist.
