Lisa Ray has successfully battled cancer. Proof of how well she has reclaimed her health was there for all to see on April 20 when she not only walked the red carpet at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles for her new film Cooking With Stella, she even ran indoors when it suddenly began to rain on the red carpet.Recounts her director
Dilip Mehta ,"The red carpet ceremony had to be shifted inside the Arclight Theater complex since it had started to rain.
Our lovely warrior Lisa shone on the red carpet.
She could have knocked you down with a feather. I'm in awe of her strength of character and she continues to be a beacon of hope."
Apparently a number of filmmakers and actors were unable to show up because of the volcanic-ash situation in Europe. Says Dilip, "Fortunately, Lisa came in from Toronto and I came in via Bangkok.
I think this was Lisa's first red carpet appearance since the Toronto Festival in October 2009. She looked radiant and so chic."
Lisa herself is in an upbeat mood and even planning a trip to India. "Our LA premiere was very satisfying. I should be back in India soon as well."
