Would love to write my mother's biography: Actor Soha Ali Khan

Actor-author Soha Ali Khan says she would love to write a book on the life and times of her mother, veteran actor Sharmila Tagore, even though she has doubts about being the "right person" for the job.

Soha is co-producing a biopic on legal luminary Ram Jethmalani with her actor-husband Kunal Khemu. She has also penned a memoir besides writing multiple children's book with Khemu.

The Perils of Being Moderately Famous author said her mother keeps asking her about the status of her next book and Tagore would be happy if "I write her biography.” “I would love to. It's so close to home though... When people read them, they will be like 'would they be able to share the grey aspects of this personality because you are their child'.

"So, I can write a story about her but I don't know if it would do justice to all the facets of her personality, and I don't know if I'd be able to share everything about her as a child. Honestly, I would like to tell that story," Khan told PTI.

The Rang De Basanti actor said not just her mother, there is a compelling story waiting to be told about her father, legendary cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi.

"There is a wealth of information. There is a lot of content," she said, adding that her brother, actor Saif Ali Khan, a voracious reader himself, is another person in the family who can take up that responsibility.

Having co-authored three children books in the famous Inni and Bobo series with her husband, Khan said there is a "book in each of us" and it is all about "discipline and practice" when it comes to writing but she believes she lacks it.
