...Rossellini himself had seen the finished film only one day before the festival deadline; there was not even time for careful editing. But with money and time running out, Rossellini, whose reputation had been sliding downhill even before he ditched Ingrid Bergman for India's sloe-eyed Sonali Das Gupta, was forced to gamble on an unfinished draft. Despite the long odds...
...months of career-dictated separation from her husband, Actress Ingrid Bergman, starring in Tea and Sympathy in Paris, sped to Orly Airport and into the arms of Director Roberto Rossellini, returning from India, where he made some documentary films and some undocumented headlines with exotic Script Girl Sonali Das Gupta. Sonali's husband is now threatening to jettison her. For the same reason, Indian officials once indicated that they believed Rossellini had abused their country's hospitality, if not Sonali's.

He moved down the hall a piece to Room 561, a cubbyhole without air conditioning.

Even India's Prime Minister Nehru was dragged into the international to-do over the "business relationship" between Italian Film Director Roberto Rossellini and his connecting-suite neighbor in Bombay's Taj Mahal Hotel, high-caste Siren Sonoli Das Gupta, 27, wife of an Indian movie director. A delegation from the family of doe-eyed Sonali, mother of two sons, called on Nehru with the obvious purpose of persuading him to rid Sonali of Rossellini, 51.
