“I am in a comfortable space. We (she and Kunal) are both independent with our careers going well. We have met each other’s parents and have their approval. I think I’ll be ready to settle down in a couple of years,” says Soha candidly.

Isn’t she afraid of losing out on plum projects after marriage? “Why should I? Look at my mom (Sharmila Tagore), she had her biggest hits after marriage. If she is said to be an exception, then I would also like to be an exception like her,” says the actress.

The Pataudi girl is now keen to master cooking, especially to graduate from cooking stir fried chicken to mutton rogan josh.

“Kunal loves good food, and I know to cook just a couple of dishes. I can make stir fried chicken, which I think he likes,  but I have made a resolution to learn to cook more dishes, especially rogan josh and Kashmiri dum aloo,” she says.

Though Soha admits to her shortcomings when it comes to cooking, she reluctantly admits to having the upper-hand in the relationship, especially in an argument.

“If I am angry then I can really say hurtful things.  It’s something I don’t like about myself. I never raise my voice when I am angry, but simply cut off or answer in monosyllables. This is one aspect that Saif (Ali Khan) and I have got from dad… we would laugh when mother would fret and shout in anger, but with dad (Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi) it was different — we would simply freeze in fear,” she reveals adding, “But Kunal is generally chilled out about everything."

But didn’t Saif say that he’ll get married before Soha as he’s the elder brother? “That was just a tongue-in-cheek answer. Besides, if he takes 10 more years to get married, do you think I am going to wait for that long?” she counters.
