Soha Ali Khan is one of the most prolific actresses, but not many know that she entered Bollywood without telling her parents, Sharmila Tagore or Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. Talking about the same, the actress stated that she always knew that her parents would not approve of her joining the profession. For the unversed, Soha made her debut with the Bengali film, Iti Srikanta in 2004.
