Do the laundry and help in household chores: Sharmila Tagore tells men how to make the ideal home

Actress Sharmila Tagore feels a real man is one who does not leave all the household chores to his wife.

She says it is necessary in this day and age for a man to share the workload with his significant other.

“Now we are all working women. Things are now changing and now we are ready and we want men to come forward and share the load. It’s not going to make you less of a man. I have seen Saif (Ali Khan, her son)…when he became father (how he shared the load),” said the National Award-winning actress, according Indian Express.

“It’s in everybody’s mind that this load sharing and this household chores need to be shared, do the laundry at home and help in household chores,” Tagore told reporters.

She went on to add, “To be a real man, I think you have to be supportive of each other and to be a real woman you have to be supportive of your man, and the man has to do the same thing, only then he would be a real man,”

Sharmila Tagore is definitely not all words. Her daughter Soha Ali Khan shared that she saw what she describes as she grew up:

“That kind of sharing the load is something that I have seen in my family growing up. Amma was a working wife and a mother. I have seen my father being very supportive of that and laundry was always my father’s department,” explains Soha.
