Be it running towards paparazzi leaving his mumma’s hands, waving and greeting them with a smile, correcting them that it’s Tim not Taimur, making weirdly adorable faces for the cameras, flaunting his swag, pouting like his star mommy, or saying 'khichik khichik khichik' at home while pointing camera on people and pretending to be 'Mediawale', there’s no second thoughts on Taimur Ali Khan being our most favourite star kid. And as much as we hate the paparazzi and media for following this little boy wherever he goes, deep down we love stalking his pictures and videos. We keep updating our social media feeds so that we could get a glimpse of the little bundle of joy.

Born on December 20, 2016, the youngest member of the Kapoor-Pataudi family, Taimur Ali Khan will soon turn four-year-old and a few months later, he will become a big brother. Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan are expecting their second child and to announce the same, the couple had released an official statement, "We are very pleased to announce that we are expecting an addition to our family!! Thank you to all our well wishers for all their love and support." We are looking forward to see Taimur showering love on his little sibling like he admires his cousin, Inaaya Naumi Kemmu, daughter of his bua, Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Kemmu.
On Neha Dhupia’s podcast, No Filter Neha season 5, Saif Ali Khan spoke about how his little one, Taimur Ali Khan had come in the limelight of the media at such a young age. Commenting on being paparazzi’s favourite and most photographed star-kid, Saif said, "Ya, I think he’s realised that there will be cameras in certain places. He has never enjoyed being photographed particularly, even by us at home. But he understands,I mean, he smiles and waves and he likes camera flashes but it’s just something he’s always seen so he doesn’t think about it."
Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan are planning to shift into a slightly larger apartment, which is located opposite to where they're currently staying and will put this house on rent. Revealing why they’re moving out, Saif said, "It’s funny, like this house that we live in, is really cluttered. It has things lying around, paintings and books and things and lot of people said you’ll have to clear this up, you know, lots of glasses on a low shelf. My mother and a few other people said, it’s all gotta move when the kid’s running around. And we didn’t get around to moving it ever and he’s just made his way around it, he’s never broken a thing. I’m just saying what you grow up with you just become used to." (Also Read: When Kareena Kapoor Khan Revealed Taimur Ali Khan's Reaction To Saif Ali Khan's Tattoo Of Her Name)
Expressing how they have taught Taimur Ali Khan to be polite when paparazzi clicks him and the importance of learning that it is not a big deal, Saif Ali Khan elaborated, "I mean, it makes me a little tense, he gets that vibe and then when they would chase him to school, you worry, I mean, there’s too much attention sometimes. It’s sad, you know, people don’t let you be like a normal kid in Bombay. This star kid is a tag that just falls on you, whether you like it or not and in fact, the answer is you don’t want it but what can you do. So, they are serving a purpose, someone says don’t stop them, they’re doing their job, they are also getting paid, you know it’s a lockdown situation so in India, there’s that complicated thing and an American would be like – hey, can you please not stalk my house. But here I’m like I understand you’re getting paid and I don’t want to stop you getting rozi-roti. So, it’s like that, you don’t know how to react. I think when you resist it, it becomes a situation, when you hide from them, or run around with your hat pulled low, but if you just give them that picture, just give a smile and just move on. So, the important thing is to tell Taimur – you must be polite and it’s no big deal and I think he’s learnt that."
