Saif Ali Khan may be a movie star and also the nawab of Pataudi, but he remains humble about the way he began his movie career.
Saif, who celebrated his 10th wedding anniversary with Kareena Kapoor on October 16, recalls how he was thrown out of his first film because, as he tells “I started with an English accent.”
You have seen the biggest successes of your career in twohero films, and yet, you have been very secure as an actor. Where does that kind of security come from?
Firstly, it might be a misconception that it does a lot with security.
It’s not a very secure position in any sense.
You are happy to have a job, at one point.
I don’t know how I got into this profession.
I have done third leads also, and slowly, slowly, grown.
After a while, you feel, you can’t do this anymore.
Luckily, you grow because it’s not the best role, and after a while, you want the best.
I am lucky that I got to a position where I got those things, and worked for it.
I shouldn’t be so honest.
Most actors are, deep down, a little insecure, and then we make a show of being secure because we are actors.
But a director like Pushkar and Gayathri really treated me like a hero.
Pushkar told me to just calm down because he said, ‘You are the hero (of the film).’
They present you as such, but sometimes you are not well looked after, and everybody knows that.
Your role can even be different from what is written down.
So it takes integrity from the makers to bring that across and I think that is something amazing about their work and their ethic which I will never forget.
