Kareena's relationship with her mother-in-law, Sharmila is an inspiration for all the 'saas-bahu' of the nation. Once in an interview with the DNA, Kareena had called her mother-in-law an eternal begum. She had said,
"For me, my mother-in-law will always be the eternal begum, a career-oriented woman who started a family, who ran the house, looked after three children but yet worked in the biggest commercial successes as well as some great serious cinema. She kind of always tried to balance everything. To me, she still is and still looks super gorgeous. Right from the beginning till now, I can't take my eyes off her. I look up to her in every way, so for me, she will always be that."
Well, we love how Kareena Kapoor Khan adores her mother-in-law, Sharmila Tagore!
