Bollywood Meets Politics: PM Modi's Adorable Gesture for Taimur and Jeh!

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was excited to meet Taimur Ali Khan and Jeh Ali Khan, the sons of Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor. A media agency posted a video showing PM Modi interacting with the Kapoor family. Saif said that PM Modi was the first prime minister he had ever met in the video. In response, PM Modi recalled his encounter with the late Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, Saif's father, and expressed his desire to meet the family's third generation.

 

Saif Ali Khan is seen speaking to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a video released by the media agency, saying, “Aap pehle Pradhan Mantri hai jisse main mila hoon. Aur aapne aankhon mein aankh milake, personally humse mile and do baar mile hai. Aap mein itni achi energy hai aur aap itni mehnat karte hai. Aur aap jo karte hai, main aapko congratulate karna chahta hoon."

 

(You are the first Prime Minister that I have met. You have spoken to me while looking into my eyes and met me twice. Your energy is so good and you work so hard. I want to congratulate you in whatever you do)," Saif told PM Modi.

 

“Thank you for opening your doors and hum sab se milne ke liye and itne accessible hone ke liye (for meeting us and for being so accessible for us)," Saif said.

 

PM Modi responded, “Main aapke pitaji ko mila hoon aur main soch raha tha ke aaj mujhe teen peedi ko milne ka mauka milega. Lekin aap laaye nahi teesri peedi ko (I have met your father, and I thought today I will get to meet the third generation as well. But you didn’t bring them)." He then burst into a laugh.

 

Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan contributed by adding, “Hum laana chahte the (we wanted to bring them)." Kareena posted a picture of Taimur and Jeh on Instagram, revealing that PM Modi sent them an autographed message despite his inability to see them.

 

Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Neetu Kapoor, and other Kapoor family members were recently invited to Prime Minister Modi's home in New Delhi.

To personally invite the Prime Minister to the opening of the Raj Kapoor Film Festival, which is set for this Friday, December 13, 2024, in Mumbai, the family flew to the capital. In honour of the renowned Raj Kapoor's 100th birthday, the festival is being planned.
