The fan frenzy for star kids got a whole new meaning the day Taimur Ali Khan Pataudi came into this world. Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan's son has dubbed as internet's favourite baby by the Indian media. The paparazzi do everything in their power to get pictures of the cute baby and the fans of the baby consume those pictures day after day with unsatiable gusto. Things seemed to be getting a little out of hands when a doll based on the baby was launched in the market by a toy company. But Kareena and Saif are cool with it. And if that is the case, they must also be cool with the WhatsApp stickers based on Taimur Ali Khan.
WhatsApp has recently launched the service of stickers on their platform. Users are loving the new feature. And well latest addition to the pack of WhatsApp stickers is based on Taimur. Now, you can reply with popular expressions of Taimur while chatting. What do you think about it?
While talking to a news daily, reacting to the news of Taimur's doll, Saif had said, "Maybe I should trademark his name... The least they could do is send me one." He also added: "I am glad people are benefiting from him. I only ask God for his safety and happiness in return."
Reacting to the doll, in interaction with Mumbai Mirror, Kareena 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.”
