However, as a child Raima knew nothing about the legendary aura surrounding her grandmother.

"When my sister Riya and I were kids, grandma had already given up films and public life. So, we only knew her as our grandmother and not as this iconic star until the time we became actresses ourselves. It was only then that we realised what a huge reputation our grandmother had."

Raima is all praise for her grandmother's determination.

"She took a decision to stay out of public view and she stuck to it. It's easy to withdraw from the limelight, but difficult to resist coming back to it. Once she made up her mind, she stayed away. She left everything and everyone behind. My mom, sister and I were all she had."

About Sen's mythic seclusion Raima reminisces, "When Riya and I were kids she took us shopping and boating. She would come home as we would go to hers. But no, she never cooked for me. Neither does my mother. But we'd have lunch together. I'd miss my lunches with my grandmother."
