Saif Ali Khan and Soha Ali Khan's relationship
When asked about her relationship with Saif Ali Khan, Soha shared, “ He is quite unique, my brother. He has never been like a traditional older brother. He has been there and looked after me, appreciative of me. As many times I have turned to him, he has turned to me for my advice and my support. So, in that way, it's been quite a refreshing relationship even though we are so many years apart. "
Talking about Saif Ali Khan has struggled with his two younger children, Soha added, “ He has lived a colourful life and he is not conservative but I think when it comes to your younger sister, it brings out certain instincts in you and I have seen him grapple with that in the past when I have introduced him to a boy."
On Saif Ali Khan’s first meeting with Kunal Khemu
"Uff! I really want to tell you but how do I say my that my brother was lovingly stroking Kunal's biceps in Hindi. Aap mujhe batayie, biceps kya hota hai Hindi mein.( whatare biceps called in Hindi) He was quite taken by Kunal. I remember calling him home and we were playing pool, because at that time we had a pool table in our house, this was before we had a child. And he was like, touching his biceps, and syaing, 'Oh, where do you workout? and things like that."
Soha Ali Khan praised her husband Kunal Khemu and added that the latter does not pretend to be anyone else. He has never pretended to be anyone else even in a meeting with a Sharmiila Tagore or Saif ali Khan.
“But I think, what most people appreciate about Kunal is that he does not pretend to be anything that he is not where sometimes people in a first meeting witha Saif Ali Khan or Sharmila Tagore might feel intimidated, or even feel the need to amp it up a bit. And, Kunal never has amped it up for anyone. That kind of sincerity, that kind of integrity, people responded well to that." Khan added.
