Saif Ali Khan has plenty of things to do with Bengali culture owing to his roots. His mother, Sharmila Tagore, originally hailed from the famous Tagore family of Kolkata. She was born to Gitindranath Tagore, a high-profile person in the British India Corporation, and his wife Ira Tagore. Her birth makes both the father and the mother relatives of the legendary Rabindranath Tagore. Gitindranath is the grandson of the famous Bengali painter Gaganendranath Tagore, whose father was a cousin brother of Rabindranath Tagore. On the other hand, Ira Tagore is the granddaughter of Rabindranath’s brother Dwijendranath Tagore.
By donning the traditional dhoti-kurta attire, Saif Ali Khan celebrated Ganesh Chaturthi in style and truly gave a respectful nod to his rich cultural heritage, actually weaving his Bollywood glamour with the distinguished legacy of his family.
