Sharmila Tagore heaps praises on daughter-in-law Kareena Kapoor saying, her son son Saif Ali Khan would reply, Soha Ali Khan would take her time to do so but Bebo will respond on time.
In the ten-minute-long interview, Sharmila is heard spilling the beans about her Pataudi family, husband and her children. During a conversation, Sharmila revealed what she loves about Kareena. She said, Kareena is an easy-going person, who does not make it difficult for her staff or the people around. She also praised her daughter-in-law, "I like your consistency. I like the way you keep in touch because I know that if I sent you a message, you will invariably answer," adding that although her son Saif Ali Khan would reply, Soha Ali Khan would take her time to do so.
Sharmila also loves how welcoming and cordial Kareena is. "If I am coming to the house, you will ask me what I like to eat and I get what I want. That must be the Kapoor trait because you keep a wonderful table," she said.
She also narrated an incident the time her husband Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi passed away. Kapoor spent the day in the hospital with the rest of her family although it was her birthday the next day.
"I have seen you during various stages, and you have been rather wonderful, I must say," said Sharmila said to Kareena.
When Kareena asked Sharmila what the difference between daughter and daughter-in-law is, the veteran actress replied, “A daughter is someone you’ve grown up with. So you know her temperament, you know what makes her angry and how to deal with that person. You’re meeting your daughter-in-law when she is an adult already and you don’t quite know what her temperament is like, so it takes time to gel. The new girl, your daughter-in-law, is coming to your house so you need to welcome her and make her more comfortable.”
She also added that it is boy's part to make his wife comfortable, because she is entering a new family, “The onus is on the boy’s side to welcome a girl and make her comfortable and not interfere too much because it is a new relationship. If I say, ‘When my son was young, this is what he liked and this is his favourite dish’… All that showing off can be a bane. You should allow their relationship to grow more than try and take over."
A few days ago, Sharmila celebrated her 75th birthday with her family. Soha wished her mother on Instagram by calling her a tigress. “I may not have seen Krishna the tigress this morning with Kunal... but I got to put my arm around this tigress here,”
Soha wrote on Instagram along with an image.
Soha posted another image in which Inaaya is seen curled up in her grandmum’s arms. “Birthday pancakes,” she captioned the image.
The family, including Kareena, Saif and Taimur, were in Ranthambore to celebrate Sharmila’s birthday, which is said to be her favourite place.
