It is as Indian as it can get.

She obviously grew up studying when Brits were ruling the country so hint of Brit pronunciations a given but she was very clear in pronunciation and very pleasant on ears. That's what any agreeable accent is to me 😆

Yes as someone commented below, people's English writing and speaking skills were much better then cz

they were exposed to much better standard of English then, only read the best of books in high quality grammar and vocabulary,

they communicated directly with the British and naturally picked up their diction, pronunciation etc

Agree obviously but I have a whacked sense of humor so the way you wrote it made me chuckle

She sounds very similar to Queen Elizabeth II, to me.

Yes, she speaks Queen's English


Sounds similar to upper class British accent we see in some old movies


Here she is introducing MS Subbulakshmi to northern audiences in her film "Mira"
