Saif Ali Khan heaps praises on his father, Mansoor Ali Khan
A father is always a ‘king’ to their kids. The way these kings protect their children from all the storms outside automatically generates a never-ending and unquestionable love in the hearts of the little ones, and they feel proud about everything that their fathers do. So is the case with Saif Ali Khan, who couldn’t help but shower his father’s unbreakable charm on the cricket fields and his cricketing mettle. Saif said:
“I think if he had played today, the media would have loved him and that quiet but stellar demeanour of his, that unique open batting stance, with the bat lifting unorthodoxly towards the gully but magically straightening at the last moment before contacting the ball. And that hat he wore rakishly angled across his bad eye. No one in the history of the sport has ever come back from that kind of accident and got hundreds against England and Australia. It’s the greatest sporting comeback in the history of the game.”

Saif Ali Khan talks about Mansoor Ali Khan’s legacy
Talking about his father’s legacy, Saif Ali Khan stated that his dad’s legacy and family had always been with them. Talking about his father’s experience in life, Saif added how Tiger Pataudi had an incredible life around the world, from the great cricket grounds to his Delhi home and more. In Saif’s words:
“His legacy to us, his family, is always with us: a sense of honour and poise; style and dignity with all things. He had an incredible life I think: from the jungles and palaces of Bhopal to the rarefied atmosphere of Winchester and Oxford, to the great cricket grounds all over the world to his home in Delhi where he would lounge in his kurta lungi, reading, and watching birds and squirrels in the garden through his window.”
