Saif and Sharmila Tagore

Sharmila Tagore reflects on her early days of motherhood, revealing her candid thoughts at a recent Mother’s Day event for YFLO. Married to late cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan, she welcomed her son, Saif Ali Khan, in 1970, but admits to feeling 'absent' during his first six years.

The 79-year-old actor reminisced, "When I had Saif, I was very busy...I was really absent... Then when I became a mother, I became an overzealous mother... I made a few mistakes, honestly."

Despite her initial challenges, Sharmila is grateful for her son's growth, crediting her husband and the support of extended family and friends.
