Chandrika Shah:
"We belong to the Brahmakhsatriya caste, which is for reforms. Chimanlal and Bulbul Desai of Sagar Films were in my relation. In other words films and theatre were in the air. However my theatre-madness was not exactly favoured!
I was educated in the Fellowship School which encouraged studies in arts. Then Elphinstone College. Acted in Kashinath(of Sharadbabu) and Nagabawa by C. C. Mehta. Got acquainted with Lalu Shah. Participated in the 1942 movement. For a time i felt my life would never be the same."
