Taimur Ali Khan’s little toddler friends who attended the pre-birthday bash, brought along some grand gifts for the birthday boy. Apart from the toy cars and blue balloons, a birthday present with a card that reads as "Exhausted from the paparazzi” caught our attention, courtesy Taimur being favourite of the paparazzi and media as he greets them every time they meet with a ‘hi’ and ‘bye’. Here’s the gift:
Like most of the star kids, Taimur too will be sent to a boarding school, where he can lead a normal life, away from the media and paparazzi. In an interview earlier, Saif had stated, “Maybe I’ll send him to a boarding school when he is 13. I don’t know, growing up as a star kid, going to the schools of Bandra and Juhu. He needs to see the world.” Very recently, mommy Kareena too, opened up about the same and was quoted as saying, “They are leaving us with no choice. But of course, as a mother, it would kill me to send him away. And I think it'd be unfair and I tell Saif that it'd be like running away from reality because this is the reality.”
Speaking of how media scrutiny on Taimur Ali Khan is tough for the little one as well as her and Saif, Bebo shared in an interview with Mumbai Mirror, “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.”
Taimur’s grandmother, Sharmila Tagore is also worried by the limelight her little grandchild is getting. A source close to the family shared, “She 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: Funniest Memes On Priyanka Chopra's 75-Feet-Long Wedding Veil And Her 18-Feet-Tall Wedding Cake)
