"He has done lots of romantic things. I think the most romantic thing is when my son points at it now and asks. Like, he is all the time looking at that tattoo. And Saif is like, 'This is your amma's name.' And he (Taimur) keeps wondering like, 'What is he saying?' I think that's a special moment for me."
