Sara and Ibrahim are Saif’s kids from his first marriage.
Netizens are mad at Saif Ali Khan for not taking the names of all his kids.
Saif Ali Khan has been put on the chopping block after an old video of the actor resurfaced on the microblogging site, Reddit and went viral quickly. In the clip, Saif was asked whom he loves the most and he mentioned his mother Sharmila Tagore, wife Kareena Kapoor and son Taimur. Saif is receiving flack for not taking his older kids, Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan’s names.
In the now-viral clip, Anupama Chopra asks Saif Ali Khan about the ‘greatest loves’ of his life. The actor says, “Well, you know, my wife and my son. My mom, my wife and my son.” Watch the video here:
Netizens flocked to the comments section to express their hot takes. One person wrote, “Not mentioning all your kids is so shitty. I hope Sara and Ibrahim don’t see this. It would definitely hurt me if I were them.” Another added, ” Sara and Ibrahim deserve way, way better.”
Another person wrote, “Ouch I can just imagine how Sara and Ibrahim might have felt .” One comment read, “I feel bad for Sara and Ibrahim.” One person commented, “Was it really that hard to say ‘all my children’?” Another person wrote, “What about the kids he had in his first marriage?”
Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh had gotten married in January 1991 and divorced in 2004 after 13 years. They have two children – Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan. In 2012, Saif married actress Kareena Kapoor. Saif and Kareena have two children, Taimur and Jeh.
All of Saif’s kids maintain a close relationship with him. In several interviews, Sara Ali Khan spoke about how she seeks her dad’s advice when it comes to films. Sara and Ibrahim also have a friendly relationship with Kareena and celebrate festivals with her and her two sons.
In an older interview with Zee Cafe, when Kareena was asked about her equation with Sara and Ibrahim, she had said, “I love them dearly, we’ve just come back from a vacation in London and both of them are extremely well brought up. I’m yet to see children who are so forthcoming and open. When Sara was leaving, I was deeply upset, because I don’t like her leaving Bombay and we are very close.”
“Saif loves the atmosphere at home, where we are all sitting together eating, having fun like one big Iranian Family. That’s what I enjoy and that’s what he (Saif) feels I’ve brought to the family,” Kareena added.
