How can we set elevation or shadow at bottom for Tablayout?

Question

I have a tablayout with viewpager in a fragment. Now I want to set bottom shadow to the tablayout. I searched regarding this and tried using android:elevation value but it doesn't show any shadow to the tablayout. I also setting android:clipChildren="false" and android:clipToPadding="false" and margin bottom value. Am I doing something wrong here? Any help would be appreciated.
