Persis Khambatta (2 October 1948 – 18 August
1998) was an Indian model, actress and author. She was known for her
role as Lieutenant Ilia in the 1979 feature film Star Trek: The
Motion Picture.
Childhood & Early Life
· Persis Khambatta was born into a
middle-class Parsi home in Mumbai, then known as Bombay. Her father left the family when
she was two years old. She first gained fame when a set of her pictures
casually taken by a well-known Bombay photographer[ was used for a successful campaign for a popular soap
brand. This led eventually to her becoming a model.
· She entered and won the Femina Miss India contest in 1965. She was the
second winner of Femina Miss India and third Indian woman to participate in
the Miss Universe pageant. At the Femina Miss India contest, she
also won the Miss Photogenic award.
Career
·
Khambatta's first appearance at age 13 in advertisements for
the soap brand Rexona set her on her way to becoming a popular model. At age
17, as Femina Miss India, Khambatta entered Miss Universe 1965, dressed in off-the-rack clothes
she bought at the last minute. She became a model for companies such as Air India, Revlon, and Garden Vareli.
·
Khambatta made her Bollywood début in director K. A. Abbas's Bambai Raat Ki Bahon Mein(1967),[4] playing cabaret singer Lily
who croons the film's title track. She had small roles in 1975's Conduct Unbecoming and The Wilby Conspiracy. She went on to have a brief
movie career that included the role for which she is most recognized, the
bald Deltan navigator Lieutenant Ilia, in Star
Trek: The Motion Picture (1979). She shaved her head for the role. She was
originally signed to play the role for five years, as the intention was to
create a new Star Trek TV series.
·
Khambatta said that
she was thrilled when the project became a movie instead, because it would have
greater impact on her career, but she also recognised that she had lost five
years' work.[5] Khambatta became the first
Indian citizen to present an Academy Award in 1980. She was nominated
for Saturn Award for Best Actress for her role in Star Trek. This led to roles in Nighthawks (1981), Megaforce(1982), Warrior of the Lost World (1983), and Phoenix the Warrior (1988). She was considered
for the title role in the James Bond film Octopussy (1983), but was passed over in favor of Maud Adams.
Major
Work
·
Khambatta was seriously injured in a car crash in Germany in
1980, which left a huge scar on her head. In 1983, she underwent coronary bypass surgery. She returned to
Bombay in 1985, and appeared in the Hindi television series Shingora opposite Aditya Pancholi and Marc Zuber. Soon after, Khambatta returned to Hollywood and performed in guest roles on various television
series such as Mike Hammer and MacGyver. In 1997 she wrote and published a coffee table book, Pride of India, which featured several
former Miss India winners. The book was dedicated to Mother Teresa, and part of the royalties went to the Missionaries of Charity. Her final appearance in an
acting part was that of Chair of the Congress of Nations in the 1993 pilot
episode of Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.
