Here’s how Mansoor Ali Khan reacted to Sharmila Tagore’s bikini pictures
In an interview on Kapil Sibal’s YouTube channel, Sharmila recalled how her husband reacted to her bikini pictures in the magazine. She mentioned that her husband was very different, very little perturbed, and extremely supportive. He remained “calm and non-judgemental”, and since he was far away in London, he didn’t realize what was happening in India.
Sharmila added that she believed there were questions asked in parliament, but she had no idea it could cause such a stir. She explained that she was young, had a good figure, and was not forced to do it. When the cameraman asked her something about it, she paid no heed.
