“I have had the opportunity and the good fortune to hold him and it felt quite surreal. It felt like holding royalty,” Ranbir said in an interview.

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor's son Taimur Ali Khan is not a darling of the media and the country as a whole but even uncle Ranbir Kapoor is a fan of the little one.

During an interview for a TV channel, Kapoor was asked about the paparazzi culture of today and the way it followed Taimur around all the time. The actor was also asked how different was it when he was growing up, considering he was also a star kid.

Ranbir confessed he was a big fan of Taimur himself and regularly checked online for his photos. " To be honest, I stalk his pictures because I am also obsessed. Because when you see him it just warms your heart. And when he has his haircut or how he walks... I am a Taimur fan,” he said.

“I have had the opportunity and the good fortune to hold him and it felt quite surreal. It felt like holding royalty,” he added.

Ranbir also spoke about his own childhood and how he and his sister did get attention because of their parents. “We had our own share of public spotlight. Of course, camera phones weren’t there, paparazzi wasn’t there. The kind of attention you got in school, when you went outside, people knew that me and my sister were Rishi Kapoor’s children. It felt good in a way that people looked at us in a nice way. We had a nice time basking in our parents’ glory,” he said.

On the work front, Ranbir is shooting for 'Brahmastra' and waiting for his next film, 'Sanju’s' release on June 29.
