Kunal Kemmu's Unusual First Meeting With Soha's Family
Soha Ali Khan wanted to tell her family about Kunal Kemmu.
She did not feel comfortable telling her father herself, so she asked her mother, Sharmila Tagore, to help.
Sharmila met Kunal while he was filming the movie 99.
He was wearing a white bathrobe for a scene, which made the meeting unusual.
Sharmila liked Kunal and soon became comfortable with him.
Kunal also got along well with her.
Later, Kunal told his own parents that he was dating Soha.
He decided to tell them because newspapers and other media had started reporting about them.
Soha Ali Khan relied on her mother, Sharmila Tagore, to tell Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi about Kunal Kemmu.
Sharmila first met Kunal on the sets of 99 while he was filming a scene in a white bathrobe.
Sharmila quickly liked Kunal, although she initially did not expect them to become friends.
Kunal told his parents about Soha after media reports about their relationship became more frequent.
