Yash Pal Kapur was born more than 80 years ago in Burma, at that time a constituent country of the British Commonwealth (but following independence in 1948 changing its name to Myanmar, in 1989). His childhood was spent in that country. His teenage years were interrupted by the outbreak of World War II. In 1942 he was forced to flee that country by the advancing Japanese Army. His westward trek to India was, he said, the longest walk that he had ever undertaken; it lasted him for a lifetime.
