Soha Ali Khan Recalls First Meeting With Kareena Kapoor, Calls It 'Memorable'

Soha Ali Khan recently opened up about her relationship with her brother Saif Ali Khan in an interview with Mashable India. She candidly shared that their bond wasn't always picture-perfect during their younger years, revealing a more nuanced side to their sibling relationship. Soha even recalled her first meeting with Kareena Kapoor Khan, calling it a "memorable meet".

Soha said, "I and Bhai (brother; Saif) are nine years apart, which is a lot. There wasn’t much of an overlap because when I was born, he went abroad for studies. When he came back, he started working in film, and I went to study in Oxford. After coming to Mumbai is when both of us actually started spending time together and became much closer. Saif was a mystery to me while growing up, because he used to study in Winchester and would only come home for the holidays, and he did whatever he wanted to do."

Talking about Saif's rebellious nature, Soha said, "He was sort of a rebel as a child, and my parents used to take his example and tell us what not to do. The room that I had growing up actually was his room, but when he came over, I wasn’t allowed to sleep there, because he would often jump out the window at night and come back at unusual hours. He did a lot of things, and my parents didn’t let me sleep in that room because they thought I already looked like him, so I should at least not turn out like him. I and my sister used to be very excited for him to come home, because he used to change the energy of the house. You never knew in what state he would turn up; sometimes he would have red hair, blonde hair, or long hair."
