Saif Ali Khan reveals 35-year PTA run at same school across 4 kids
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan has revealed a quirky family milestone — he has been attending parent-teacher meetings at the same school for 35 years, ever since he was 20 years old, with all four of his children enrolled at the institution at various points. The candid disclosure came during his appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show, alongside his wife Kareena Kapoor Khan.
What Saif Said on the Show
When host Archana Puran Singh asked the couple who typically attends school parent-teacher meetings, Saif turned it into a moment of gentle self-deprecation. 'First of all, I have four children in that school, at different ages. When I was 20 years old, I went for my first PTA meeting. Then I was 30 years old. I am still standing in the same school at 55. And now, even the teachers there have changed,' he said, drawing laughs from the audience.
Four Children, One School
Saif's four children span two marriages. From his first marriage to actress Amrita Singh, he has daughter Sara Ali Khan and son Ibrahim Ali Khan. With Kareena, he has two sons — Taimur Ali Khan and Jeh Ali Khan. The fact that all four attended the same school across different decades makes his three-and-a-half-decade PTA streak an accidental family tradition.
Kareena's Triple Proposal Story
The episode also featured revelations about the couple's romantic journey. Kareena Kapoor Khan disclosed that Saif proposed to her not once but three times — first in Mumbai, then in Greece, and finally in Paris — before she agreed. 'He proposed to me in Mumbai, he proposed to me in Greece, and he proposed to me in Paris, and that's when I finally said 'Yes',' Kareena said. A characteristically dry Saif responded: 'If you had just said yes in Mumbai, I would have saved a lot of money.'
A Marriage Now in Its 14th Year
After nearly five years of dating, Saif and Kareena married on 16 October 2012 in Mumbai, making this month their 14th wedding anniversary. The couple's easy chemistry and willingness to share personal anecdotes have made their joint public appearances a reliable draw for fans and media alike. Their latest outing on The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show is expected to air to wide viewership given the couple's combined fan base.
