Saba Ali Khan is a protective aunt to all of her nieces and nephews, and she never hesitates to speak up for them. Saba took to Instagram shortly after her brother-in-law and actor Kunal Kemmu addressed the issue of child trolling in an interview. She blasted mocking of Taimur Ali Khan, a five-year-old who was recently chastised for asking paparazzi to turn off their cameras.

“I’ve been meaning to address this and agree with Kunal in his frank interview with Bombay Bubble,” Saba wrote on her Instagram Stories, sharing a photo of Taimur and her. When someone approached me and stated they were Taimur fans, I was taken aback. Alternatively, we may follow him. He was a CHILD! Almost a year. He is now a little boy. I was equally appalled with people trolling a 5-year-old boy since I feel protective of all the children.”

“You chase the children, and then when they are simply real and honest, the same old adorable becomes criticism,” she continued, interrogating the trolls and offering them a powerful response. What gives? Children are maturing. They will grow, change, and learn. LEAVE THEM ALONE. You don’t have to be a die-hard admirer or a zealous critic. ALL children are blessed by God. Yours and ours, respectively. Amen.”

Taimur had ordered the paparazzi to turn off their cameras when they started photographing him last month. “Band kariye (shut it down),” he screamed at them.

Kunal, in defending Taimur, told Bombay Bubble, “A child is a child. He or she are free to do whatever they desire. Now, if you’re going to get in their face and take a picture, and then someone complains about how the kid is acting, that’s their problem. Nobody will say to the kid, “Oh, why are you doing this?” He couldn’t speak before, and he was in someone’s lap, clicking, and he couldn’t do anything. If he doesn’t like it, he’ll say so now.”
