‘Taimur Has No Interest in Cricket’

Saif Ali Khan reveals that his son shares an inseparable bond with Karan Johar’s son Yash — and that his interests lean more toward art than sport

xKaran Johar’s son Yash and Saif Ali Khan’s third-born, Taimur, are more than just friends — they’re best friends. Though Taimur is a year older, the two share the same class, spend time at each other’s homes, and even agree to attend parties only if the other is going.

Recalling a sweet memory, Saif says, “A few years ago, Taimur came home talking about ‘Mr Yash Johar’. I thought he was referring to Karan’s father, after whom his son is named. They’re inseparable and can’t do without each other.”

The actor also opened up about Taimur’s interests, which, unlike those of his grandfather Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, have little to do with cricket.
