Soha Ali Khan recalls father Tiger Pataudi's reaction to her birth
In a recent interview with News18 Showsha, Soha Ali Khan shared a humorous anecdote about her birth.

Soha, who grew up in a family deeply rooted in both cinema and sports, chose a different path, carving out her own niche in the film industry.
