EXCLUSIVE: When Kareena Kapoor Khan-Soha Ali Khan were unsuccessful in getting a picture with Taimur-Inaaya
In an exclusive interaction with Soha Ali Khan, the actress revealed the first meeting between daughter Inaaya Naumi Kemmu and Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan's son Taimur Ali Khan. Soha also spoke about how Kareena and she tried to get a group picture with Taimur and Inaaya.
Soha Ali Khan welcomed a baby girl last year and named her Inaaya Naumi Kemmu. Inaaya's cousin and Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan's son Taimur Ali Khan is Internet's favourite darling and given the close proximity between the star kids, we wondered how adorable their first meeting may have been.
In an exclusive interaction with Pinkvilla, we asked Soha about her daughter and her nephew's equation and first meet to which the actress revealed, "How does one answer that question? She's two and a half months and he's one. The first time they met, Inaaya was asleep and Taimur was very much awake and screaming and I was worried he was going to wake her up but she slept through it. That was in her room, in her nursery."
Recalling a funny incident when Kareena and she tried to get a group picture with Inaaya and Taimur, Soha continued, "Then we took Inaaya to meet Taimur in his nursery and that's when they were both awake. They looked at each other for the first time. We tried to take a picture where there was Kareena holding Taimur and me holding Inaaya and we tried to get one picture where all of us are looking somewhat human and decent. I don't think we could. We have one picture where Inaaya is looking somewhere else but at least the rest of us are looking normal. It's difficult with babies but they're still coming into their own which is a little bit older. Maybe, her first birthday is when they will be able to interact a little bit more."
In today's times, star kids are all the rage right now in terms of media attention and one could even say that they are as popular as their famous parents. When we quizzed Soha if she feels the paparazzi's constant eye on star kids get a bit too much, the actress stated, "One thing as parents or just as people, one is very concerned about with children is; even when we take pictures of Inaaya at home, we make sure that the flash is not on. We make sure that she is safe and the only concern is when you go out in the public or you're walking into the airport or anywhere with your child is that with all the flash is going off, the child gets little disturbed and might get scared. It's not good for their eyesight. With the media, in the case of big celebrities and their children, it can be a little bit of a stampede situation and you don't want anyone to get hurt. And then comes the fact that you don't want to expose your child to that kind of media attention. You don't necessarily want pictures of your child being seen by everyone in their households and people commenting on how do they look and who do they look like. People, I don't know if I do or not, but you talk about nazar nahin lagni chahiye. We still follow that a lot in our culture. So, that's why I think people are a little apprehensive about too much media exposure."
