Sheena Chohan’s Powerful Take on Valentine’s Day Will Change How You See Love

This Valentine’s Day, actress Sheena Chohan offers a perspective on love that goes far beyond flowers and candlelight. For her, the day is not just about romance, but about reflection and responsibility.

“Valentine’s Day is usually seen as a celebration of romantic love,” Sheena says. “And while that is beautiful, for me love is much larger. It is not about gazing at each other, but about looking together in the same direction — toward shared purpose, shared growth, and a shared vision for a better world. Love, at its most powerful, is responsibility.”

Drawing inspiration from the birth anniversary of Sarojini Naidu, which falls on the same day, Sheena reflects on women who embodied love not just in personal relationships but in public life. “Sarojini Naidu and many women like her showed us that love for the country, love for rights, and love for humanity, by helping to write the constitution, can shape history. That kind of love is transformative — it uplifts society and protects dignity.”

For Sheena, Valentine’s Day becomes a reminder that love must expand beyond the personal. “True love grows. It begins with self-love, extends to partnership, and ultimately becomes love for humanity. It should reflect in how we treat others, how we stand for what is right, and how we contribute to something larger than ourselves.”

Ahead of Valentine’s Day Sheena Chohan Initiated the Love For Constitution Campaign with a leading national Radio Channel.

As she continues work on her upcoming Tamil and Malayalam films, Sheena remains committed to meaningful storytelling. “For me, cinema and compassion walk hand in hand. If love is transformative, storytelling is one of the ways we can awaken it.”

Sheena Chohan is the only Indian actress to have received the Hero Award at the United Nations. As she gears up for her exciting upcoming releases, this Valentine’s Day she celebrates love in its highest form — love for humanity.
