After 16 days of COVID i mixed my father’s ashes into a rose plant and two evergreen trees, sought his blessings, and return my broken heart to the reporting road for @themojostory starting travels through rural India. This will be a personal pilgrimage. Wish us luck and love

A moment that shook the country, sparked outrage, and became one of the most iconic images of its time.

At We The Women London 2026, I sat down with #sharmilatagore as she revisited the story behind her legendary Filmfare cover, the backlash she faced, and the quiet support she received from Tiger Pataudi.

A conversation about breaking conventions, owning your choices, and the courage to be ahead of your time.

In an emotional and deeply personal conversation at We The Women London 2026, #saifalikhan opens up about the horrifying night he was attacked inside his own home, the moment he came face-to-face with an intruder, and the instinct that took over as he fought to protect his family.

He recalls the fear in his son Taimur’s voice as the little boy asked, “Are you dying?” and the terrifying realisation that his own life was hanging in the balance.

From the shock of being stabbed in the place he should have felt safest, to the moment he launched himself at the attacker, Saif shares the trauma, courage and aftermath of an incident that changed his life forever.
