Soha Ali Khan Doesn’t ‘Outsource Anything’ To Kunal Kemmu, Takes On All ‘Parent Duties’ Herself

Soha Ali Khan is a hands-on mother, and the actor believes that she wants to do it all by herself for her 8-year-old, Inaaya Naumi Kemmu, because she cannot rely on her husband, actor Kunal Kemmu. In a recent conversation, Soha Ali Khan spoke about how Kunal can easily fall asleep if ever asked to wake their daughter up for school.

Speaking to Tweak India, Soha shared, “I like all of the parent duties. Also, because I like to be in control. If I don’t do it, it won’t happen. If I send Kunal to wake Inaaya up, they both will be lying in bed till 7:20 a.m., and I will be like, ‘Guys, school time.’ He will be like, ‘Yeah, yeah, it will happen,’ and she will pretend to sleep. So I don’t outsource anything. I want to do everything by myself.”

Soha,

while continuing the conversation, spoke about how she is very particular but has an understanding with her daughter and Kunal. “I told my husband, women need more sleep than men, so he lets me sleep for that extra hour. And Inaaya also knows. Because she goes to bed at least two hours before I do, she gets her full sleep, and I sometimes need that extra half an hour. So she would come and knock to ask if I am awake, and that would wake me up. But now, often, she very sweetly doesn’t wake me up and finds ways to occupy herself until I wake up. That little extra half an hour, one hour is very precious,” she said.
