Saif Ali Khan says he would be a better actor in Hollywood

News Analysis |

Actor Saif Ali Khan is convinced that he would have done better in Hollywood. He says he would be a better actor if he were delivering dialogues in English because it is his primary language.

In his recent interview with Anupama and Rajeev, the actor candidly spoke about his entry into Bollywood.

Sara Ali Khan is hoping to make a promising entry to Bollywood through her debut movie ‘Kedarnath’ with Sushant Singh Rajpoot.

He said, “One of the reasons why I got into films, unfortunately, I’m being honest, is because I wasn’t interested in my exams and academics and I just ran away from home and said ‘Oh movies sound great’. But, I didn’t really know what I was talking about.” said the ‘Chef’ star.

“So, this desire and this understanding of acting came a bit late for me [even] if it had always been there. If it had been there earlier maybe I might have chosen to struggle in the US, I don’t know.”

“But I think being sensible about it, you have more opportunities and again it’s that nepotism thing again. Being mum’s son (veteran actor Sharmila Tagore) would give me more of a chance here to meet people than in America.”

“But I speak English as a primary language unless I’m speaking to someone who is working for me usually.”

In his recent interview with Anupama and Rajeev, the actor candidly spoke about his entry into Bollywood.

“There’s a difference there, so I think I will be a better actor in English because I’ll know when I’m lying whereas in Hindi I’ve never said to a girl ‘aapki aakhein itni khoobsoorat hain‘ (your eyes are so beautiful) so I don’t know whether that sounds genuine or not, I’m not used to saying that,” he added.

Regarding his daughter Sara Ali Khan, the actor said she always dreamt to become an actor since childhood.

Whereas for Taimur, his youngest son from Kareena Kapoor, he said, “He is a genetic treasure trove, he is. He has got a bit of Rabindranath Tagore, he is a bit of Raj Kapoor, a bit of Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, a little bit of Bhopal. It’s beyond me.”
