Taimur Ali Khan is two years old today! The little munchkin is busy holidaying in South Africa with mum Kareena Kapoor Khan and dad Saif Ali Khan and we already know some of his plans for his big day. Saif, in an interview, revealed that Taimur will be celebrating his second birthday by riding horses and watching some of Africa’s famous wild cats.
Maasi Karisma Kapoor, in the meantime, wished her little ‘jaan‘ on his birthday. The Dil To Pagal Hai actress put up a picture of Taimur, sitting in bed with her children Samiera Kapoor and Kiaan Rak Kapoor and captioned it, “Happy 2nd birthday to our little jaan! We love you the most!!”

It does not come as a surprise that Taimur was one of India’s most searched celebrities online in 2018. The little one has had a jolly year as he learned how to respond to the media, wave to the paparazzi and he has even taken badminton lessons this year. As we look back to take stock of 2018 just zipping past, we could think of no one better to take us on a recap than Taimur himself. Here’s are some of Taimur highlights from the last 12 months.
1. His First Walk Of Fame

Little Taimur was already walking tall this year. He was spotted trotting along with his nannies for the first time early this year and obviously, we couldn’t hold it with all his cuteness.
2. Acing His First Waves To The Paparazzi
Taimur has a long lineage of Bollywood superstars from both sides of the family. It was only a matter of time before he totally aced how to interact with the media.
3. Call Me ‘Tim’
From a simple bye to asking the media to call him ‘Tim,’ Taimur is media-shy in no way. Just look at him in the video below.
4. His First And Only Competition – Himself

Taimur’s popularity was bound to spur a celebrity lookalike soon enough, and that happened in the shape of a Taimur doll. The toy went viral online and even half-sister Sara Ali Khan was smitten by the cutie.
5. India’s Youngest Fashion Icon
From having the most adorable Halloween costume to nonchalantly stepping out in his blue playsuit, Taimur has already started setting fashion trends. With one of the most stylish couples in Bollywood as his parents, that was surely on the cards.
6. His First Year In School
Earlier this summer, Taimur began playschool and the internet went ga-ga over his pictures.

Finally, we got to see Taimur having a ball of a time in South Africa with his parents, Kareena and Saif. It looked like the little Pataudi was all set to build some sand castles with his parents. This is a world away from his holiday in Gstaad in the Swiss Alps and from the outlook, it does look like he’s having a tonne of fun!
Happy birthday, Taimur!
