...last I have "made" the cover of TIME. I am the Adonis to the left of the Indian directly behind the left shoulder of Cleveland's Colavito [see cut]. My wife recognized the likeness at a glance and was relieved to know I really did go to see the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Indians play in Boston that...

She could probably make more, but she handles her own finances, a foredoomed undertaking considering the uncertain economics of the Indian cinema. Rubber paychecks pile up, and she is never quite sure who owes her what. "It is embarrassing to ask for money," she says.
