Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Kemmu aren’t just couple goals, they’re the whole relationship manual with footnotes! They’ve got the love, the laughs, the adorable Insta moments, and the guts to shut down the haters like total pros. Because when it comes to interfaith marriages, Soha just dropped a truth bomb that’s as real as it gets.
Soha Ali Khan Isn’t Here For Your Diwali vs. Roza Drama
Soha recently opened up about the online noise that erupts every time she and hubby Kunal light a diya or throw some colours on Holi. Apparently, even love comes with a comment section critique. Speaking to SCREEN, the actress coolly confessed that she’s grown thicker skin.
The actress expressed, “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 upon my religion. Because I have married into a Hindu family, my mother has a Hindu surname, and she married a Muslim person (Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi).”
She added, “Usually, if we post something on Diwali, they are like, ‘How many rozas have you kept?’ If we post on Holi, there are comments reading, ‘What kind of Muslim you are?’ It doesn’t bother me, but it is something that I do notice.”
Born Royal, Raised Real: Soha Talks Legacy, Labels & Living Life Her Way
Coming from a family where cinema and culture intertwine, Soha’s used to the public microscope. But she credits her mama dearest, the iconic Sharmila Tagore, for breaking stereotypes before it was cool.
Sharmila was out there being a superstar while married to cricket legend Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, a Muslim man from a royal background, no less. The world? It had questions. “How did your husband allow you to work?” they’d ask. Excuse me, it’s 2025, let’s retire the word ‘allow’ already.
She shared, “She was asked her whole life how did your husband allow you to work, to be an actress, as it was considered good girls don’t end up being actresses.I got married at the age of 36. Very late in the day… but nobody ever questioned. I went to Oxford, I did an MA., and they were always excited and encouraging. Even the fact that I choose to have a child much later in life.”
No ticking clocks. No validation needed. Just brains, beauty, and bucketloads of boldness.
