This Famous Actor Is Desperate For A Hit! Says, 'Flops Affect Stardom'
His filmography has not been very impressive for a few years now and this has started bothering the actor as well. Guess who?
He is a talent
powerhouse, extremely suave and super-stylish but somehow fate has not been
good to him for the longest period. We're talking about Saif Ali Khan.
The Nawab of
Pataudi has not been performing well at the box-office. His past few films like
Rangoon (2017), Phantom (2015), Happy Ending (2014), Humshakals ( 2014), Bullet
Raja (2013) have bombed at the box-office.
However, there
is something about Saif because of which filmmakers are still keen to work with
him.
Now, Saif is all
set for his next release, Chef. The talented actor is very open about the fact
that he is now desperate for a blockbuster hit.
Saif Ali Khan Snapped At Chef's Promotion
"It is important that Chef performs well, else I will have to question
what is going wrong [with my career]. It affects my image of being a star,
because, a star is supposed to be bankable. Yet, it doesn't affect my
confidence. [Despite the debacles of my past films], I still have three films
and a Netflix series in my kitty. I have been the first choice for all these
projects. So, I am sure I have done something right. I am doing better work
now, working with better directors than I have," said Saif in an interview
to a leading daily.
The box-office hasn't particularly been favouring Saif Ali Khan as his last hit
was Race 2 (2013). Saif's contemporaries write off box-office collection citing
that it doesn't reflect the choices an actor makes in his career. However, Saif
seems to be desperate for a huge turnout at the box-office.
Apart from Chef,
Saif is currently shooting for India's first Netflix original, Sacred Games.
Post that he shall start promoting Akshat Verma's Kaalakandi and Nikkhil
Advani's Bazaar.
So, will Chef
work for Saif Ali Khan's turbulent career? Well, fingers crossed!
