It was not long before, when a Kerala toy company had created a Taimur Ali Khan-inspired doll, which is still reportedly in huge demand! Sharing his dadi, Sharmila Tagore's reaction on the same, a Deccan Chronicle report quoted a source as saying, “She (Sharmila Tagore) was as startled by the emergence of the doll as anyone else. The family is still trying to come to terms with Taimur’s overwhelming popularity. Saif was summoned by his mom (the legendary actress Sharmila Tagore) to discuss the issue. Normally, Sharmilaji is the most non-interfering mother you will find. But now with two-year-old Taimur being constantly in the limelight, she feels some measures must be taken to provide the child a normal life.” (Also Read: Kareena Kapoor Khan Opens Up On 'Comeback' In Films, Says 'I Don’t Think I Really Went Anywhere')

Speaking about the Taimur Ali Khan inspired toy which became immensely popular, daddy Saif Ali Khan addressed it in an interview with Hindustan Times. Expressing his concern, the doting daddy had said, “Maybe I should trademark his name…The least they could do is send me one! I am glad people are benefiting from him. I only ask God for his safety and happiness in return.”
In an interview to Mumbai Mirror, mommy Kareena Kapoor Khan too, had expressed her concern about son, Taimur Ali Khan’s growing popularity and had said, “Taimur can’t run away from his popularity and neither can his parents. When I saw the doll, I wondered what was I supposed to say. But Saif pointed out that it is because people love him so much and such things are a blessing for him. There is so much genuine warmth for our son that it’s bad to stop people from clicking his pictures or making his dolls. But, they should understand that he is a two-year-old child and needs a normal life. Both Saif and I are struggling to give him that and will continue to do so without telling the media to back off, no matter how annoying it gets after a point. It’s tough on him as it’s on Saif and me.” (Also Read: Kareena Kapoor Khan Snapped With Sunshine Taimur Ali Khan, Back On Mommy Duties After Shoot Wraps Up)
