Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan was anointed the 10th Nawab of Pataudi at a ceremony in his ancestral palace on Monday, although this has no legal or official standing. The 41-year-old actor was ceremonially crowned the Nawab at the chahallum and rasam pagri (coronation ceremony) where representatives of 52 villages had gathered to greet and honour him. Chahallum marked the end of 40 days of mourning after Mansoor Ali Khan died on September 22. Titles like Nawab are no more recognized by the government after princely states were abolished in 1971. Mansoor Ali Khan was the last Nawab who reigned between 1952 and 1971. The people of Pataudi wanted Saif to be crowned the 10th Nawab to continue the family tradition, according to village representatives.
