OK...I'll go offline. But only if you do. You need a break from Kareena, SAK and IF more than me. There is a real world out there, you know?


Yes I'm aware of it.
Have an interview coming Wednesday for SGU, thank you for the reminder.
But I think I'll stay considering I seem to have everything under control and am not biting someone's head off right now.

Give me the date and time?


Uhh why?
I just said I know the timing is after Race 2's release. Why do you wanna know the exact timing?
But really if you're REALLY curious, contact Hindustan Times. They'll give you the exact details.

Ah-ha! That means even you arent sure! Now stop acting as if you own Saif or Kareena and stop acting like they are IF BS' victims.

Dude, I KNOW its after Race 2's release coz the questions are about Race 2 entering 100 crore club.

Its pretty damn accurate.
You dont have to be an Einstein to figure it out.

There is something called common sense. In one of the questions, the interviewer specifically says Race 2 has crossed the 100 crore line. That alone means the interview was taken very recently, sometime in the past week or so.

Saif promises entertainment before his movie releases and then insults his audience for coming to the theaters to get entertained.

Now where did he do that?


Is that the reason why you are doing more commercial films?
I got into a comfort zone where I felt I could do well. Now I feel I have grown. The market has grown from the time I had started. I would like to be more versatile to maximise the potential of a film.

People often call such films mindless potboilers.
Some of them are not mindless but entertaining. It requires heroism along with a great comic timing to make people laugh. You can't make people laugh by being mindless.

Seriously, where are you getting this assumption from? Where did he insult the audience?
He said "Sometimes I feel we can get away with a lot"
Just because despite a not so crisp second half, film managed to make 100 crores, perhaps due to the power of the franchise.


And being Indian is having first having self-respect that includes respecting yourself, respecting your work and respecting your people. Too much to expect from the Nawab!

How did patriotism even enter this?
I'm from America, and I can apply the same rules here.
If Saif wasnt born in India, he might still have the traits you described.
You said he was born in the wrong country. Explain.

Umm...where is Race2 being 100Cr mentioned anywhere here in either the questions or Saif's responses?

Full interview link provided.

Race 2 has made more than ? 100 crore. How important is that for you as an actor?

The numbers are important. You have to know why you are getting into this. You don't expect it from a film like Being Cyrus. I did that film to enhance my portfolio. It depends on how and what you want in life. Race 2 had to make money. We don't do such films just for artistic integrity. It also requires conviction, as some of the dialogues are pretty difficult to believe in.

...I don't get why he adds in those comments about how a better director would have made AV better :S

The way I remember it, Sriram had a script that Saif unnecessarily meddled with by adding Kareena in it, and god knows what else he did. It was very obvious that Sriram's sensibilities were clashing with Saif wanting to make it more "commercial"...which screwed up AV. If he'd just gone with Sriram's vision, maybe it would have worked better.

Yeahh...
Sriram isnt the kinda of director for a huge commercial project. He has his own gritty style and Kareena's part was definitely added in later. Or was extended, from what I've read.

This is a lesson for him. Go with what a director's vision originally is and dont try to change it. dont make it bigger,dont add people, just know what you're signing up for.

If he wanted that big Bond film, he had the wrong script. Let Sriram do what he does best. Taut thrillers.
