FACT-CHECK
We performed a reverse image search using Yandex, a Russian search engine and the results showed that the viral image is from a 2013 play 'Drawing the Line', where Lucy Black played Lady Mountbatten and Silas Carson played Nehru.
The search results showed that the same image can be spotted in an article about the play published in the British tabloid Metro on December 11, 2013.
The summary of the play can be found on the website of the Hampstead Theatre, London, which was directed by Howard Brenton, centered on Cyril Radcliffe and his part in the partition of India.
Radcliffe was given the chairmanship of the two boundary committees set up to draw the borders for the new nations of Pakistan and India.
