Due to the honest conversation between the two on What Women Want, Sharmila Tagore, and Kareena Kapoor Khan recently topped the list of trends.
Kareena asked Sharmila Tagore what she really likes about her and Tagore said, “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. Saif would not, not Soha. Soha most certainly won't reply. I mean, she will take time but you will reply."
She also added, “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.”
Talking about how Kareena supported the family during the difficult time following the death of Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi (Sharmila’s husband) Sharmila Tagore said: "Relationship wise, you're good. I have seen you when Tiger (Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi) was in the hospital and how you didn't draw attention to yourself. It so happened that September 21 is your birthday and Tiger passed away on the 22nd. You were there and you were just like my children and my family. I really remember that. I have seen you during various stages and you have been rather wonderful, I must say." Mr. Pataudi died of respiratory failure on 22 September 2011.
On getting asked to choose her favorite grandchild, Sharmila Tagore said, “I have to live. I can't possibly commit myself to that. They are all very different from each other and it's really wonderful that I have two grown-up grandchildren and two very little grandchildren. So I am enjoying both. And I think Sara's interviews, I just love and I am proud of her. And Ibrahim is the only one who looks like a Pataudi. He is kind of tall and he likes cricket.”
Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and the family recently celebrated Sharmila Tagore's 70th birthday in Ranthambore.
