Almost a month old now, little Taimur Ali Khan has been making news ever since he was born, and even went viral on social media because of his 'controversial' name.

In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Saif clarified that Taimur was infact not named after the Turkish invader and ruler.

Elaborating on the reason behind naming their son Taimur, he said, "Both my wife and I liked its sound and the meaning. In fact, of all the names I ran by Kareena, she liked this one the best because it's beautiful and strong. Taimur was the name of a boy I had grown up with and a cousin too. It's an old family name, like Sara who was also named after a cousin I admired."
Talking about the trolls who had opposed Kareena and him naming their son 'Taimur,' Saif claimed that the reactions were 'ridiculous' and 'unnecessary.'
"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 jokingly added.
