Khan asserted, “I lived in India for some time after I got married, and then I travelled all over Europe, America, and England. So, for about 20 years, I practically lived out of a suitcase. From one place to another, and from one place to yet another. And, of course, I was looking after my son, who is a very brilliant boy, he's very intelligent. That's what our children say - 'You should start working again, Mom.”

Sonam further added that her son thinks she is the “prettiest woman in the world.” And since her child is asking her to make a comeback, she is keen to return to her acting career.
