In what is a double-first for the versatile Saif Ali Khan, he will be playing a blind man in the prolific Priyadarshan’s next.
Saif has never played a blind man, nor has he worked with Priyadarshan, although both have been in the Indian entertainment industry for about 25 years.
Confirming this development, Saif says, “Yes, I am doing a film with Priyadarshan next. I play a blind guy. It’s very exciting.”
For a long time, Priyadarshan has wanted to work with Saif. They have finally zeroed in on a script that they both like—and it is NOT a comedy but a thriller.
Says Priyadarshan, “I’ve always liked Saif’s screen presence. I was waiting for something suitable to do with him.”
Saif will be seen next in Netflix’s Jewel Thief, a heist drama where he co-stars with Jaideep Ahlawat.
