New Delhi, Nov 2 Actor Ali Khan">Saif Ali Khan, who has been annointed the 10th Nawab of Pataudi, says he's honoured and hopes to carry his late father Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi's legacy forward in a responsible manner.

'I'm overwhelmed with the kindness and simplicity the village heads have shown me and my family and the respect to my late father. This is a huge responsibility for me to take my father's legacy forward in whatever way I can,' Saif said in a statement.

'This is a deeply personal part of my life. Princely titles no longer exist, but family values and tradition do...I shall be conscious of this always and do the best I can for Pataudi,' he added.

Saif was Monday anointed the 10th Nawab of Pataudi at a ceremony at the family's Ibrahim Palace in Pataudi. Heads of various villages of the area tied a white turban (pagri) around his head to annoint him the new nawab. His mother Sharmila Tagore and sisters Saba Ali Khan and Ali Khan">Soha Ali Khan were also present.

The 41-year-old's father, popularly known as Tiger Pataudi, passed away Sep 22 in New Delhi's Sir Gangaram Hospital after battling a severe lung infection.

    I love how everyone is bashing...any who remember he JUST became a Nawab so I'm guessing it's OKAY if he did all the things in the past...I guess now he has to be more careful as to how he makes decisions in his life..anyways in Islam its okay to marry 4 times..and Kareena is going to convert so she can marry him which I think it's just for the sake of getting married...it'll be a shame for all the Muslims ...which I think is okay cause everyone knows that non of the Khans in Bollywood actually follow Islam thoroughly they all celebrate Eid and Ramadan so they don't lose there Muslim fans...

    Honestly, I dont think he is capable enough! And after all what work does he have to do! He is no pm or mla! First he should know about how to behave!

    Well, I sure hope this means that he will keep to his native state more often now, take better care of his people rather than basking in the luxury of it's wealth and enjoy it only in vacations with Kareena. A real nawab does not do drugs, elope, or live-in relationships with different women when he has children to set examples for. But he has done all of the above. It's high time to learn some responsibility.

    How is it a responsibility @ all? If there are problems in that place, people would approach their MP or MLA, certainly not the Pataudis. It may have been a responsibility when they were real nawabs. But it's certainly not a responsibility now.

    Given how meaningless this title now is, why can't Begum Aisha just let go?

    Nawabs don't leave their wife and children to starve and run off with all the money to the latest figure in size zero. Responsibility to villagers apart this man could not even fulfill his responsibilities to his own children.

    the title of nawab...my foot. His deeds don't testify to the title and he clearly doesn't deserve it. I don't know how many of you saw his and Kareena's latest appearance on KWK. I was simply disgusted at one comment of his where he said "I am GODZILLA in the size department". Really dude, get a life. Nawabs don't go around acting like such a douche bag.
