Saba Ali Khan Shares Throwback Picture Of Her Parents Sharmila Tagore, Mansoor Ali Khan

The elder daughter of actor Sharmila Tagore and late cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan, Saba Ali Khan, took to Instagram on Thursday to share an unseen picture of her parents.

She wished her followers Ramadan Mubarak and Shubho Noboborsho (Bengali New Year), in her recent social media post.

Along with her parents' picture, who belong to different religious backgrounds, she stated that one doesn’t have to choose one faith over another and wrote “faith is personal”.

“Ramadan Mubarak...and Shubho Noboborsho to everyone! It's not one or the other... We don't have to choose. Faith is personal and life is a celebration. We are all #unique,” the caption read.

Ramadan began on April 12 and will conclude on May 11 whereas Pohela Boishakh, the first day of the Bengali calendar, is today.

Meanwhile, in a recent interview, the veteran actor Sharmila Tagore revealed she was blamed for cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan’s poor performance on the field. In a live session that streamed on YouTube on April 13, Tagore revealed that her father Gitindranath Tagore blamed her when her late husband had probably “dropped a catch”.

“My father screamed from somewhere else, ‘You shouldn’t have kept him up all night!’ I mean, can you imagine?” she said.

Recalling her meeting with Tiger Pataudi, she said in the interview, “I met him in around 1965 at somebody’s party. There we got to talk to each other. He had a very British accent and nobody would laugh at his jokes since they didn’t understand them. So, he used to laugh at his jokes himself”.

Mansoor Ali Khan and Sharmila Tagore have three children together- son Saif Ali Khan and daughters Soha Ali Khan and Saba Ali Khan. In 1965, Tiger Pataudi was the youngest captain of the Indian cricket team. The couple met back in 1965 through common friends in New Delhi. They decided to tie the knot on December 29, 1969.
