Saif Ali Khan hints at Akshay Kumar's role
In an earlier interview with Variety India, Saif Ali Khan suggested that Akshay Kumar will be seen in an unusual role in Haiwaan.
He said he was excited because Kumar plays "a dangerous, negative role", adding that it is a side of the actor audiences do not often get to see.
