At the age of seventeen, Simi Garewal had her first brush with love. The actress was head-over-heels in love with the Maharaja of Jamnagar, who was her neighbour. They had a passionate yet turbulent relationship, which lasted three years. Simi revealed that she had done tons of crazy things with him, and it was love on fire. However, with time, their relationship took an ugly turn, and the love was replaced with the toxic effect of possessiveness. In an interview with Filmfare, she had said:
"At 17, I fell in love with my neighbour – the Maharaja of Jamnagar. It was a turbulent and passionate affair that lasted for three years. He showed me a wonderful world of animals, sports and food. Of passion and compassion… we did mad, crazy things but it grew obsessive. I look back at it now with a smile. But I realised what possessiveness could do to a relationship. It cured me forever of jealousy in love."
Simi Garewal also shared a beautiful past with the famous industrialist, Ratan Tata. The actress always remembers Ratan Tata as a perfectionist.
