Sharmila Tagore's Shocking Reaction to Saif's Marriage

Sharmila Tagore candidly discussed her reaction to her son Saif Ali Khan's marriage to Amrita Singh during an appearance on Koffee With Karan 8. Tagore recalled Saif's announcement, noting her color change and subsequent call to her husband, Tiger, who was left in silence. She later met Amrita for tea, still quite shocked by the suddenness of the union.

Saif Ali Khan described his marriage at that age as a way of "running away from home," seeking security and a sense of home with Amrita. Tagore observed their similarities, noting their shared sense of humor and wit, which made them seem very happy together.

Tagore also spoke about Saif's divorce from Amrita Singh, stating she was the first person he confided in. She offered her support, a difficult moment that brought tears to her eyes as Saif revealed he had already married. The separation was a rough time for the entire family, impacting them deeply, especially Tiger, who was fond of their children.

Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh married in 1991 and divorced in 2004 after 13 years, sharing children Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan. Saif later married Kareena Kapoor in 2012, with whom he has two sons.
