Even today people cannot imagine the kind of life Kajol's grandmother Shobhana Samarth lived in 1940. On the occasion of Mahe-Mohabbat i.e. Valentine's Day, we tell you the interesting story of the love story of Shobhana, the legendary actress of her time, and Motilal, who was considered a natural actor. Shobhana, the mother of veteran actresses Tanuja and Nutan, was considered the top and bindaas actress of her time. She first met Motilal on the set of a film.

Motilal and Shobhana Samarth were both actors who lived life on their own terms. In an era when women did not step out of the house, Shobhana and Motilal not only expressed their love but also openly accepted their relationship in front of society.

Love story of Shobhana Samarth and Motilal

Motilal was an actor who lived a bindaas life. He loved driving a car at high speed, riding a horse, and flying an airplane. According to media reports, Shobhana, who was married and a mother of 4 children, was famous in the film industry. Shobhana Samarth and Motilal met at Sagar Movie Tone Production House which turned into friendship. After some time, Shobhana broke up with her husband Kumarsen Samarth. This was the time when she came close to Motilal. Motilal proposed to her but Shobhana did not show interest. Motilal did not give up but rather found a way to express his love, which perhaps even today's youth would not do. Motilal hired a helicopter and started circling over the roof of Shobhana Samarth's house. It is said that he wrote a love letter, wrapped it in a stone and threw it. The glass of Shobhana's room broke and she said I love you. Shobhana, who got emotional with Motilal's move, accepted the love proposal. This relationship lasted for a long time but both did not get married. They did not hide their relationship from the society but lived their life openly.
