In an interview with Filmfare, Soha Ali Khan talked about being a working mother and shared that her focus was diverted to her newborn baby after becoming a mom. She also mentioned how she couldn’t concentrate on her work and added that it took her two long years to realise that one has to fulfil multiple responsilities. Talking about the same, the actress said:
“I chose to have a child later in life so that I could devote more time to being a parent. That has always been my priority. Women are said to be great multitaskers but I can only do one thing at a time. I had lost sight when I became a mother. Now I realise that was a huge mistake, and you must maintain other identities, passions and pursuits. But it took me two years to realise that."
Further in the interview, Soha mentioned how she started involving herself in multiple activities and realised that the most important thing is to spend time with your loved ones. Adding that she feels very fortunate to be able to make choices in her life, the actress stated:

“Yes, I feel guilty. However, this comes from within. It comes from our desire to be everywhere. Meri beti ko jaisa main khaana khilati hun waise koi aur khaana nahi khila sakta. She’ll be starving. However, it is impossible to do everything. Everyone knows we work and care for our child, husband and home. Women put in a lot of effort. So all we have to do is unwind."
