We know that Taimur Ali Khan is a big hit and ever since he was born, his oodles of cuteness has had everyone ‘awwing’.
Well, if you are a big Taimur fan, you might understand the need that someone felt to create a ‘Taimur’ doll. The internet has found a doll which is inspired by Taimur Ali Khan.
Check this out:
This is the ‘latest find’ from a store in Kerala. With those blue eyes and a smart jacket, the doll sure looks cute but barely resembles Taimur.
But some are not finding this cute at all...
So from finding it cute to downright creepy, the Internet is pretty split on this Taimur inspired doll.
To understand what to make of this ‘merch’, we reached out to an expert in the merchandising world -- Black White Orange, CEO, Bhavik Vora.
But can a brand really be created out of this two-year-old boy‘s sensation online?
“Yes”, says Bhavik Vora.
While having a ‘Barbie’ doll to her name was a big deal for actor Katrina Kaif, Taimur has his own lookalike doll thrust on him before the age of two!
And maybe an entire label/brand will follow suit.
