Shoaib Akhtar Does Not Want His Newborn Son To Be Like Taimur Ali Khan, 'Rawalpindi Express' Blessed With 2nd Child On July 4th!
Legendary Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar announced the arrival of his second child, a baby boy, through his Youtube video, also asking fans to suggest good and unique names beginning with letter 'M'

Former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar who's popularly known as The Rawalpindi Express, has been blessed with another baby and Shoaib made this announcement through social media on Thursday. Shoaib and wife Rubab Begum, who are already parents to a 2 yr old boy named Muhammad Mikaeel Ali Akhktar, welcomed their second child, another baby boy who was born on Thursday at 5 pm. Shoaib said he is overwhelmed with the feeling of becoming a father for the second time. While the second time father is excited about his baby's arrival, he has no plans to share the pictures of his newborn any time soon. Talking about sharing the pictures of his newborn, Shoaib also mentioned that he does not want his kid to be in the centre of the limelight and be always followed after like Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor's star-son Taimur Ali Khan gets followed. He said - "tasveer main nahi share karunga, thoda sa main ispe yakeen nahi rakhta ki mai tasveer dikhaoon apne bete ki... jab pehla beta bhi hua tha toh bohot kam maine uski tasveeren zabardasti mujhse kaha gaya tasveer nikaalne ko.. kyonki mai nahi samjhta ki wo limelight mei aaye ya uspe camera pan ho jis tarah saif ka beta taimur hai.. uspe hamesha camera pan rehta hai so there's lots of pressure on the kids. So i don't want that to happen with my kids!"

On a related note, Taimur is currently in London along with his parents. Saif is busy shooting his upcoming 'Jawaani Jaaneman' in London opposite Pooja Bedi's daughter Alaia Furniturewalla who's playing his daughter marking her debut in Bollywood with this film. Kareena too is shooting for 'Angrezi Medium' which stars Irrfan Khan in lead role.
Shoaib asked his fans from all over the world to pray for his son and all the kids anywhere. He also asked his fans to suggest names for his son saying, "Bohot saare khayalaat zehen mei aa rahe hain ki uska naam kya rakhoon!". He asked fans to suggest any good names that come to their minds for his son.
"Koi bhi naam aapke zehen mei aata hai.. kahin bhi.. Pakistan, India, Canada, Australia, Bangladesh, SriLanka.. anyone! who can send me feedback with the names but i can give you the clue! My first son's name is Mikaeel.. it's the name of the angel.. that disperse water and responsible for food on earth.. Ab naam[for second child] 'M' se start hona chahiye so agar aapke paas koi suggestion hai, plz do send it! Such as i thought ki uska naam Zinoon Misri hona chahiye tha! Mere zehen mei kayi cheezen chal rahi hain.. i would like to have a very unique name for my son. For the son born on such a blessed day which is jumme raat.. so!"
The congratulatory messages have also started to pour in for Shoaib on becoming a proud father for the second time.
Pakistani actor-singer Ali Zafar, who has also done multiple Bollywood films including SRK-Alia Bhatt starrer 'Dear Zindagi', Imran Khan-Katrina Kaif's 'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan', 'Tere Bin Laden' among others, wrote to Shoaib- "Congratulations @shoaib100mph for the baby boy. [boy emoji] Wishing the family the best of health and happiness. #littlepindiexpress".
Pakistani singer Shafqat Amanat Ali who has delivered many hit songs in Bollywood, wrote - "Heartiest Congratulations on becoming a father again @shoaib100mph God bless you guys and the baby. Best wishes".
