Saif Ali Khan gave an interview to Firstpost where he used some big (and random) words to defend himself during the nepotism jokes he, Karan Johar and Varun Dhawan cracked during IIFA. He also spoke at length about his adorable little son Taimur Ali Khan and how his popularity is getting a bit too much.

Taimur gets written about like he’s Elvis, before he’s even born. And so now when he’s growing up, it’s going to be really tough for us as parents to keep a level head on his shoulders and tell him, “No, you are nothing. You haven’t achieved anything until you’ve done it on your own.” When he’s 18, the press themselves will launch him. So where does the nepotism start? The producer is just an opportunist saying “okay, let me market this”.

He makes a fair point here. Don’t you think? Tell us your opinion in the comments below.
