‘It’s So Easy To Get A Little Typecast And Also The Kinds Of Emotions You Are Dealing With Become A Little Similar.’

Saif Ali Khan has received rave reviews for his performance in Vikram Vedha, co-starring Hrithik Roshan.Saif, 52, who is set to complete 30 years in films, is enjoying the current phase in his career, but his hunger for better and bigger roles still remains the same.He says “I am suddenly thinking maybe I could do a little more in terms of various and different aspects of being an actor and a star.”
What kind of response have you been receiving for your performance in Vikram Vedha?
Really nice reactions from across the board.
I kept a trial where a lot of different people saw the film. Everyone liked it and appreciated it.
It’s quite unanimous. Normally we get mixed reviews, but this time it felt like everyone liked it, which is, touch wood, great.
What’s the level of your confidence after receiving glowing reviews for your performance?
I like to feel proud of the fact that sometimes, even if you are not feeling confident, it’s not based on the success of the movie.
Sometimes you have to be confident when you go to work, even if you have not been successful sometimes.
A lot has happened to me, but it feels great to be able to be confident about knowing your job and delivering it, and, of course, if a film does well like this, you get praise like this, everything feels good. You feel good.
Ultimately, that’s why we are doing it. So yeah, it feels great.
