Speaking to Just Too Filmy, Soha revealed, “There was no money at all in cricket when my father played — no IPL, no endorsements. He played purely for the love of the game.” She emphasized that despite his fame, her father wasn’t driven by material success.

Soha credited her mother, Sharmila Tagore, as the primary breadwinner in the family, calling her an inspiration who broke societal norms. “At 24, she got married and had a child soon after, but she continued to act — achieving some of her biggest career highs post-marriage,” Soha shared.
