Saif Ali Khan says Taimur does not like paparazzi attention: ‘He starts frowning’
Saif Ali Khan said that his son Taimur Ali Khan, who is a paparazzi favourite, does not enjoy being photographed everywhere he goes.
From the moment he was out of the hospital, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s son Taimur Ali Khan has been followed around by the paparazzi everywhere. However, the three-year-old does not enjoy the constant media attention, his father revealed in an interview with The Times Of India.
Revealing that his son would rather “be normal and ignored”, Saif said, “He’s like, “No picture!” And he starts frowning. He doesn’t like too much fuss. It’s not something he is excited about, for sure.”
However, Saif understands that a lot of people love to see Taimur’s adorable antics. “But on the other hand, in a positive way, he does seem to make people happy. And he makes me very happy, because he is a cute kid. So I get it… because it’s an outpouring of affection and love,” he said.
“But unfortunately sometimes, in some public places when he goes to school, sometimes it can get a little crowded and that’s something he has grown up with. And it’s not something that any of us enjoy, but what to do?” the actor added.

Saif has two films lined up for release this month – Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior and Jawaani Jaaneman.
