A father is not just a superhero for his daughter but for his son too. A son follows the footsteps of his father in every situation of his life. There is no greater bond than the one that a son shares with his father. It is a strong, unyielding and everlasting bond that can’t be compared with any other bond in the world. We always talk about the sacrifices of a mother but a father’s compromises remain unsung. A father will be right behind you, near you and follow you on every path of your life, to guide you, protect you and motivate you.

Taimur Ali Khan became an internet sensation overnight when his first picture had gone viral. When Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan had graced their balcony with newborn Tim in Saif’s arm, they must not have thought that he will become one of the most followed star-kids of Bollywood. Taimur is soon going to be three and he is indeed growing to be a handsome boy. On December 4, 2019, Taimur accompanied his daddy, Saif at the Mumbai airport and proved that they are one of the most adored father-son duos of Bollywood. Saif looked his best in a pink and white-colored kurta-pajama and on the other hand, Taimur looked super cute in his casual and super comfy jeans and t-shirt.
There is no doubt that Taimur Ali Khan is followed by the paparazzi everywhere and is loved by them. Taimur too is very fond of his mediawalla friends and seems quite comfortable with the constant camera glares but his father, Saif seems to be worried about the same. In an interaction with Arbaaz Khan on his chat show, Pinch by Arbaaz Khan, Saif had talked about Taimur and the craze of mediamongers. He had stated, “It would be so nice to live in a culture that allowed children to be children. Play in a park and do what he wants...without being a celebrity. Even he has started saying ‘media’. I say where’s the media and he points outside. All of our kids want to join films and I am a little concerned about that. I feel there should be other choices.” (Suggested Read: Kartik Aaryan Picking Sara Ali Khan's Name As 'Patni' Makes Us Wonder If They Are Still Together)
In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Saif had revealed that Tim is more media-savvy than both him and Kareena. Saif had revealed, “Timtim is more media-savvy than either me or Bebo (Kareena Kapoor Khan). He calls the photographers 'Mediawale'. He thinks Mediawale is a name! One of his favourite games is to point my camera at people. He will say 'khichik khichik khichik' and pretend to be 'Mediawale'!”

In a 2018 interview with the Bombay Times, Saif Ali Khan had talked about how he loves spending time with Taimur and had shared, "When I come home after work and find Taimur sleeping, I feel bad. We shoot long hours, but if I haven’t packed up even after 8 pm, I feel uncomfortable because it means taking away time from my son. In my growing-up years, my parents taught me about the importance of respecting family space. My father (Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi) was a cricketer and mother (Sharmila Tagore) is an actress, and they both had hectic schedules. However, we learnt that it is important to talk about other things, too, at home and that’s how life becomes beautiful."
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Kareena Kapoor Khan had raised her concern regarding the paparazzi culture and had said, "Of course (it affects them). Even if we want to take pictures, Taimur sometimes says 'No photos'. He has learned to say that. He's constantly being watched and he realises he's being clicked now. This culture has been there for a while now and nobody is asking anyone not to do their job. But we are just asking for a little space because they are children and we want them to grow up in an environment that is safe and secure, where they can be the way they want to be."
