Sharmila Tagore confirms news of Saif-Kareenas marriage

So, this time the rumour of Bollywoods power couple Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor's marriage is not false and the couple is really going to get married on October 16 this year. The news has been confirmed by none other than the grooms mother and veteran actress Sharmila Tagore herself. "Yes, that's the date we have decided upon. There will be a reception, too, but not a very big one," Sharmila Tagore informed. Unlike elder sister Karishma Kapoors wedding, Kareena and Saifs marriage ceremony will be a quiet and close affair. According to reports, the wedding will take place at the Pataudis' ancestral home and will only be attended by immediate family members of the bride and groom. "Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi died only recently, so the family wanted a low-key wedding. Kareena and her family agreed, too. However, there may be a large reception bash after the wedding, considering both Saif and Kareena have many friends in the film industry," a close source said. However, the venue for the wedding reception is not decided yet. Kareena is reportedly not going to leave acting after marriage just like her would be mother-in-law Sharmila Tagore, who reached the prime of her career only after her marriage. The actress has also postponed her honeymoon due to current work commitments. "Sharmila's best innings as an actress started after marriage. Saif was a baby on the sets of one of her best films, Aradhana. Kareena will follow her footsteps. After marriage, she will do two films a year. Right after she completes Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine, she'll begin shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram Leela," the source said.
