When the bong beauty of Indian cinema, Sharmila Tagore had tied the knot with Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, who was a pioneering figure in India's rich cricketing heritage, the actress had also accepted her fate of being the Begum of the Nawab of Pataudi. The duo was blessed with three kids, Saba Ali Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Soha Ali Khan, whom they have raised with a lot of love.
However, when Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi had left for his heavenly abode in 2011, it was saddening not just for his fans but also for his family.

Though his body has left the earth, he is always there with them. And his daughter, Soha's post, proves the same.

She had said, "Around the time I was born, my dad had become a stay-at-home father, moving his engagements at home. It’s not like we always saw our father going to work and mom at home. We actually saw the reverse — dad was with us and mom would be away for her work.''
