Days after actor Saif Ali Khan was stabbed inside his Mumbai home, he and his wife Kareena Kapoor have set new guidelines for paparazzi interactions. The decision comes in the wake of heightened security measures surrounding the Khan family.

According to a Times of India report, Kareena’s team held a meeting with Mumbai-based paparazzi on Tuesday to discuss the new restrictions. The couple has specifically requested that photographers refrain from clicking pictures of their children, Taimur Ali Khan and Jehangir (Jeh) Ali Khan. Additionally, they have urged the paparazzi not to gather outside their Bandra residence, citing security risks.

As per India Today, while the couple is open to being photographed at public events, they want to ensure their personal space and family’s safety remain uncompromised.
