Soha Ali Khan, daughter of veteran actress Sharmila Tagore and late cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, has always lived in the spotlight. Coming from one of India’s most respected families, Soha made her own name in films and later found love with actor Kunal Kemmu.Despite being married for several years, Soha once revealed that she still faces trolling for her interfaith marriage with Kunal, who comes from a Hindu family.
When Soha Ali Khan revealed getting trolled inter-faith marriage
In a past chat with Screen, the ‘Rang De Basanti’ spoke openly about how she has often been targeted online for marrying outside her faith. She shared that people on social media constantly question her religious beliefs, especially during festivals.The ‘Khoya Khoya Chand’ actress said, “I have gotten a bit thick-skinned; it doesn’t bother me. But one thing that amuses me is how, when I post something, people start commenting on my religion. Because I have married into a Hindu family, my mother has a Hindu surname and she married a Muslim man. Usually, if we post something on Diwali, they ask how many rozas I have kept. If we post on Holi, there are comments asking what kind of Muslim I am. It doesn’t bother me, but it is something that I do notice.”
Soha Ali Khan highlighted outdated expectations in families
‘Tum Mile’ actress also opened up about how certain old-fashioned beliefs still exist, even in today’s educated and privileged families.She said, “Even today, in affluent, well-educated families, there is still an expectation that if you don’t have a son, you are somehow incomplete. I have a daughter, I’m very happy, and most people around me are very happy. But there is still a sense, somewhere, that I have disappointed somebody.”
