On her 48th birthday Soha Ali Khan has revealed her adorable collection of her pets!
The youngest sister of Saif Ali Khan celebrated her special day with a special recall of her memories with the wildest creatures.
On Sunday, October 4th, Soha shared that she has always had an instinctive connection with animals, and has spent all of her life surrounded by pets.
"As a child, I grew up spending a lot of time in Bhopal and Pataudi surrounded by farm animals. At our home in Delhi we were surrounded by a lot of guests like lizards and mice," the Rang De Basanti actress noted.
She further recalled the first connection she had with an animal was with a little mouse that lived in my bedroom, "City children today would be freaked out, but I was comfortable sharing my room with a little mouse."
"I understood animals weren't there to play with; they just existed, and we didn't need to interact excessively with them. I was curious but respected that there could be distance between us and animals," the Tum Mile star added.
On World Animal Day Soha Ali Khan has also shared the collection of her animals, who has owned and rescued several dogs over the years.

Growing up, she was surrounded by farm animals in Pataudi and Bhopal, and even shared her bedroom with a mouse.
Soha Ali Khan got married in a simple and private registry ceremony in 2015 and took her only daughter, Inaaya Naumi Kemmu, for a short weekend trip to a forest in Rajasthan.
Sharing a glimpse into the forest, the infamous Indian actress wrote, "There’s something about weekends in the wild that puts life back in perspective."
"A swim, a forest walk, good food, lots of fresh air — and then, almost impossibly, four leopards!! To witness something so rare, in its own habitat and entirely on its own terms, is deeply humbling. The privilege is in being allowed to watch without intruding — and leaving as little of ourselves behind as possible," Soha captioned her post.
The actress continued, "We came back to our cluttered, noisy lives with a little more perspective, a little less urgency (hope it lasts), and the wild still very much on our minds."
