During the latest episode of ‘Koffee with Karan 8’, which saw Saif and his mother, veteran actor Sharmila Tagore, gracing the couch, the two talked about Saif’s secret marriage. Saif mentioned how his mother was ‘hurt’ and ‘started crying’ after he told her about his secret marriage as she wanted to be involved in these matters.

“He said, ‘I have something to tell you’, and then he told me. I don’t know what I was doing, but I was quiet, and he said, ‘Amma, your colour is changing, you are looking different.’ I said, ‘Well okay, we will talk about it later, not now’. After he left, I rang Tiger and told him. There was also a long silence there. We left it at that and then I said, ‘I would like to meet her’,” she said.

Saif reacted to it and said that while Sharmila was ‘supportive when he did it’, however, she was hurt when she got to know about the marriage. Talking about her prior warning, Saif recalled, “She told me, ‘I believe you are living with someone and you are doing some things’. I said yes. And she said, ‘Just don’t get married’. And I said, ‘I got married yesterday’, and a big tear fell out of her eye and she started crying and I felt I really hurt her. And she said, ‘You really hurt me, why didn’t you tell me?’ That’s actually what happened,” he recalled.

When Karan asked Saif how he decided to marry at such a young age, the actor called it “kind of like running away from home in a sense.” For him, it was “a kind of security and a kind of an idea that this is safe and it feels great. And I thought I could make a home out of that.”

“Unfortunately, doing it at 20 is young, and things change, but it was great support, she was wonderful to me. She is the mother of two of my children. I have a good relationship with her and it’s all respectful now,” he said.
