‘Feels Very Nice To Be Standing’

Saif
Ali
Khan
made
his
first
media
appearance
after
his


shocking
stabbing
incident
last
month,
and
looked
happy
to
announce
his
latest
film

Jewel
Thief:
The
Heist
Begins.

Backed
by

Pathaan
Director
Siddharth
Anand,
the
crime
caper
presents
Saif
as
a
suave
thief
who
prepares
for
a
dangerous
heist.
Jaideep
Ahlawat
plays
the
powerful
crime
lord
who
hires
Saif
for
this
criminal
job.

“Siddharth
and
I
have
been
talking
about
this
film
for
a
long
time,
and
I
have
always
wanted
to
do
a
heist
film.
I
couldn’t
have
asked
for
a
better
co-star
(pats
Jaideep’s
shoulder).
It
is
a
lovely
movie
and
I’m
very
excited,’
Saif
said.

Even
though
the
actor
looked
well,
the
black
cast
on
his
arm
and
concealed
scar
on
his
neck
were
reminiscent
of
what
he
had
to
endure.

“It
feels
very
nice
to
be
standing
here
in
front
of
you,”
Saif
said
with
a
smile.

Saif
and
Siddharth
Anand
had
collaborated
on

Salaam
Namaste
and

Ta
Ra
Rum
Pum.

Anand
praised
his
lead
actors
and
said
the
film
couldn’t
have
been
“better
and
bigger”
than
it
already
is
without
them.

Jaideep
Ahlawat,
who
is
receiving
rave
reviews
for
his
performance
as
Hathiram
Chaudhary
in

Pataal
Lok
Season
2,
said
he
is
always
on
the
lookout
for
“good
stories”
and
“good
makers”
which
makes
his
job
easy
as
an
actor.

“You
find
good
stories,
you
find
good
people
to
work
with
and
then
it
(the
acting)
just
happens
on
its
own,”
the
actor
said
about
his
process.

Jaideep’s
Netflix
association
includes
the
2023
thriller

Jaane
Jaan
in
which
he
shared
screen
space
with
Saif’s
wife
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan.

Directed
by
Robbie
Grewal
and
Kookie
Gulati,

Jewel
Thief
also
features
Kunal
Kapoor
and
Nikita
Dutta
in
pivotal
roles.
