“I Apologised for Being Evil, Not for the Film”: Saif Ali Khan on Adipurush

“I Apologised for Being Evil, Not for the Film”: Saif Ali Khan on Adipurush

Saif Ali Khan has set the record straight after a clip from a recent Netflix India video sparked chatter about him apologising to his son Taimur for making him watch Adipurush. In the segment, Saif was seen speaking to his Jewel Thief co-star Jaideep Ahlawat, where he mentioned Taimur giving him a look during the film. While it led many to believe the young boy had seen the movie and didn’t enjoy it, Saif now offers the full story.

“I apologised to Tim for being the evil villain in the film. I was growling and smashing everyone in sight! He said next time you should play the hero. I stand by all my films, and this one too.”

In Adipurush, a retelling of the Ramayana, Saif played the role of Lankesh, a character based on Ravana, with Prabhas portraying Ram.
