Saif Ali Khan who is gearing up for his upcoming film 'Rangoon' has recently opened up about his daughter Sara Ali Khan, ex wife Amrita Singh, his son Taimur Ali Khan and lot more! The actor says he is like a friend and philosopher to his daughter.

In a recent media interaction with a popular tabloid the actor was quoted saying, "I am like her friend, philosopher and guide. I don't want to control her, because it is not like one of those old-school star kids' launch where she has to talk to me or her mom to decide what she wants. I am content functioning in an advisory capacity to my daughter." (sic)

During the interview the Nawab revealed that his first wife gave great advice when he was new in the industry. He said, "My advice to her is to mainly focus on the art and figure out what kind of an actor she is, rather than getting distracted by other thoughts and politics. Sarah will also get great advice from her mom (Amrita Singh), who gave me some great advice when I entered the industry. She discusses things with me and I teach her, too. Though I wish I had followed my own advice (laughs!). I think Sarah will be a good actor as she is very passionate about it." (sic)

We all are aware that Saif's son Taimur Ali Khan's name has become a topic of controversy. The couple has faced a lot of criticism for the same from different circles! When Saif was asked to comment on it, he said, "This country has a lot of liberal and intelligent people. We have arts festivals, blues festivals and all of that, but at the same time, there are some right wing people, who could be following different religions but are uneducated and silly. And we don't have to always listen to them. God bless them...wherever they are, but they don't feature in my life. My son and his name have nothing to do with them or their views." (sic)

He adds, "Not that I owe anyone an explanation, but I know that my children will be brought up differently and in an open-minded environment because that's how our parents were and that's who we are. We are proud to be Indians, but we are also proud of where we come from. The history of India is thousands of years old. This land has seen the British and the Mughals and more...and all of them have left their mark. I believe in that and I think Taimur is a beautiful name, and that's all there is to it. Any similarity with people living or dead is purely coincidental." (sic)

He even said that he doesn't want to join social media as he is a private person and social media is no more about sharing but it has converted into selling!
