Bollywood actress Kajol took to social media to remember her grandmother and actress Shobhana Samarth on her 107th birthday. "On her 107th birthday .. here we have the OG Sita who was at one point and still is to my way of thinking one of the most beautiful women in the world," Kajol wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of her grandmother from a magazine cover.
The Bollywood diva added that her grandmother was the "sharpest and most forward-thinking woman of her time." "Who bought her own filters from the United States when they were not available here for her close ups in films!!!" she wrote.
The Baazigar actress also praised her grandmother for raising seven granddaughters.
"Who knew and managed not only her own finances but her daughters as well and with great success I might add. And yes also had a huge hand in raising her seven granddaughters. This is true #feminism ! For all those who ask me what it means and where I get my attitude from," she added.
