The Hindi film industry might not be in a good shape currently due to massive losses amidst the Coronavirus crisis, but nobody can deny the fact that the first quarter of 2020 turned out to be quite beneficial for Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan.
The actor kicked-off 2020 with the release of the high-profile historical drama Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. Also starring Ajay Devgn and Kajol in principal roles, the film emerged as an all-time blockbuster at the cash counter. Khan followed the Om Raut directorial with his home production, Jawaani Jaaneman, which also went on to become a profitable venture for everyone involved.
There is no denying the fact that Saif Ali Khan is one of those few actors from the 90s who has kept up with the times and reinvented himself over and again. Having been through the same career slump as Shah Rukh Khan is experiencing currently, Khan believes that it is just a matter of time before a superstar like SRK bounces back to the reckoning.
“SRK, if he is finding a little bit of a tricky time on which film to do or how to be seen, I do not know I was thinking about it the other day. Maybe he is so strongly identified with a certain era and becoming the face of Bollywood, on many different platforms. So, he has become synonymous with a certain era and when that era passes, you probably need to re-adjust. But he, like all of them, are amazing survivors. You cannot write anybody off, there are good times bad times and they have seen it all. There’s a particular resilience to a 90’s actor let me tell you and it’s just a question of finding that right project,” Saif Ali Khan said in his latest interview.
On the work front, Saif next stars in Dil Bechara and Bunty Aur Babli 2.
