Saif Ali Khan and Sharmila Tagore appeared in the recent episode of ‘Koffee With Karan’ Season 8 and made some interesting revelations about their personal and professional lives.
During the show, Karan discussed Saif's marriage to Amrita and the actor revealed that Sharmila was upset with him after the wedding.
Saif shared that he married Amrita without informing his parents Sharmila and Tiger Pataudi which left them ‘hurt.’
‘She told me, ‘I believe you are living with someone and you are doing something.’ So I said yes and she said, ‘Well, just don’t get married.’ And I said, ‘I got married yesterday.’ A big tear fell out of her eye and she started crying. She said, ‘you’ve really hurt me. Why didn’t you tell me?’’ Saif said.
Sharmila shared that she met Amrita Singh over tea when she was visiting Mumbai after Saif began dating her.
While Sharmila was shocked by the turn of events, she liked Amrita.
‘I was visiting Mumbai for something. So, Saif came to meet me and said ‘I have something to tell you’ and then he told me. I don’t know what I was doing but I was quiet. He said, ‘Amma, your colour is changing, you’re looking different ‘ and I said, ‘Okay, we’ll talk about it later’. After he left, I ran up to Tiger (Saif Ali Khan’s father) and told him. There was also a long silence on that part and we left it at that. The next day, I called him and said ‘I would like to meet Amrita’ and we had tea, and we chatted. I liked her but still quite shocked,’ Sharmila said.
Saif explained that he felt a sense of stability and believed he could build a home with Amrita during a tumultuous period in his life.
Saif married Amrita Singh in October 1991 and they had two children, Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan. However, they separated in 2004.
