Allegedly Nawab Saif Ali Khan is busy promoting his web series Sacred Games, which would be released on Netflix. The show also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Radhika Apte in the lead roles. Saif would be essaying the role of a cop Sartaj Singh. The series is scheduled to premiere on July 6, 2018.
Saif Ali Khan, during a media interaction, expressed his opinion on experimenting with different roles. The actor said, “If you’ve been successful at one type of thing, it could be tempting not to change that. But if you look at people who have slightly longer, wider and respected careers, they are the ones who have done different kinds of works.”
He further asserted, “There are people here who do different things, like Varun Dhawan doing ‘Badlapur’ which I saw recently. That’s an interesting choice. It adds to the respect I have for that actor which I assume is the same for everybody. Watching the work of others is a good way of knowing what’s happening around. The way to understand actors is to watch their work. Their work should speak for themselves.”
The show has been helmed by Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap. Talking about Saif being chosen for the role, Motwani explained that he finds a sense of vulnerability in Saif.
Saif added, “I’ve always been quite self-deprecating and easy. That’s the environment I grew up in. A lot of people are a bit more defensive, macho. But I am comfortable being in touch (with my vulnerability)... That’s the normal way of how one should be. Some people want to come across as very cool, strong, not say the wrong things, there is a lot of eminence front being put up. It’s not interesting to me. I find people like this very plastic. As long as directors think this is interesting, I hope they keep finding it so."
