Soha Ali Khan discussed her firm approach to parenting in a recent interview. She insists on an 8 PM bedtime for her daughter Inaaya, a rule she upholds despite social pressures common in Indian households. The actress noted that family members and friends eventually accepted the boundary after seeing her commitment. She credits her mother Sharmila Tagore with teaching the value of consistent routines, which provide structure for both child and parent. Khan also requires reading before any screen time, using encouragement to build the habit. She stresses that parents must model the behavior they expect. The approach focuses on predictability to support child development and parental peace of mind. Khan presents these choices as practical lessons drawn from her own upbringing rather than rigid ideals.
