We are all well aware how the social media went 'berserk' when they came to know about Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor's baby name i.e., Taimur Ali Khan. Some started comparing the baby with the cruel Turkish ruler Timur, while some started trolling the baby for the possibility of having an affair with Shahid Kapoor's daughter Misha Kapoor.

Daddy Saif Ali Khan, who is known for his cool nature, interacted with Mumbai Mirror and his take on the entire controversy is funny, sarcastic and on point!

Saif says, "I should have added a disclaimer, as they do in the movies, that any resemblance to any person, living or dead, is purely coincidental."

He says, "Social media just makes it clear what everybody is thinking in a sense. There is a lot of anonymity from the side of the people who are doing the talking so they feel free to say whatever they like, and sometimes they get very nasty..."

"And that's fine. It doesn't mean that twenty, thirty or forty years ago people weren't thinking similar things but maybe they did not have an outlet then. As far as I am concerned, stars are privileged and our country is actually still very balanced."

"My wife and I love the sound of it and we love its meaning. I am aware of the heritage of the Turkish ruler-he was Timur, my son is Taimur, an ancient Persian name that means iron," said Saif.

"People talk about the country becoming right-wing and fascist, and we have all these fears...but the fact of the matter is that if you view the kind of unnecessary drama over Taimur, there were a lot of voices...I felt I didn't have to say anything because a lot of people had spoken wisely and liberally."

"Voices that kind of vindicated my decision and made me feel that it's absolutely fine (to have the freedom to name his child as he wished to)."

"Yes, there were some people who raised some objections but obviously just to look at medieval history and to make value judgments is, I think, ridiculous, and a lot of people have said that on my behalf. I feel quite confident that we don't live in a right-wing society. As Yet. India is still liberal and people are still open minded," added Saif.

On the work front, Saif Ali Khan will be next seen in Rangoon, a Vishal Bhardwaj film, which also casts Shahid Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut in the lead roles. Recently, the trailer of the film was released and it was much liked by the movie buffs!
