Saif Ali Khan’s response
The actor said, “On the first day, I had to say these lines to a lady that was playing her part, and I was cued some dialogue, and I said I’ll try and get it. Sweat started running down my back, and I felt a thrill that I hadn’t felt for a long time. It was like a new thing for me, and I was panicking. I thought I wouldn’t do it properly.”
He then expressed how his confidence increased day by day as he did more and more sentences. He further said that his director was very impressed by him. Saif Ali Khan gained the director’s confidence, which made him give two-page dialogue. He also revealed that Koratala Siva’s narration compelled him to agree to this film.
“I did one or two lines, and they were okay in the beginning. They said you won’t have to speak much. But after a few days, he got impressed with how I was doing, and I got used to the language, and it’s not that difficult either. After that, he said do a page, and suddenly the dialogue started getting longer, and I said he promised me it’d be one or two lines, then the assistant would come and say, ‘Sir dialogue,’ and I’d say okay what, and he’d go on and on. I said that’s two pages, and Siva sir said you can do it now, and it’s true, we did it,” he shared.
