Saif Ali Khan on prospects of son Ibrahim Ali Khan entering Bollywood

There is nothing new in children following the footsteps of their parents and joining the same profession. Whether you call it nepotism or anything else, but a large number of children still want to pursue the same profession as their parents and carry the legacy forward. This applies in almost every field, but when a celebrity’s kid takes up the same profession, it does create a hue and cry at times.

Just like any other father, popular actor Saif Ali Khan is proud that his daughter Sara Ali Khan, who made her acting debut with Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath (2018), has proved her worth and talent in such a short period of time. After daughter Sara, now people are waiting for the debut of his elder son Ibrahim Ali Khan who has grown up to be a really handsome and charming boy.


In his recent interview with a leading Indian daily, Saif Ali Khan said that all his children have a keen interest in the profession of acting. When it came to Ibrahim, he considered his son is better-looking than him and hence he should really consider a career in showbiz. However, he emphasized that Ibrahim should first complete his graduation.

Talking about the prospects of Ibrahim’s acting debut, Saif told the daily, “He should. He’s looking good, better looking than I am! He’s a very charming guy. I definitely think all of my children would be interested in acting. We’re an acting family, the whole bunch of us are in the industry. So I’m sure. He’s still a little young, and I’m keen that he does university first. Then, of course, we’ll support him in whatever he wants to do.”

Meanwhile, Saif Ali Khan is gearing up for the world premiere of his hugely anticipated web-series Sacred Games 2. The Netflix original, also starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Pankaj Tripathi in important roles, starts streaming on 15th August, 2019.

Young British Asians finally get a platform on BBC Asian Network to talk identity, mental health and work life

Highlights:

  • BBC Asian Network is starting a new show called Asian Network Trending.
  • The show runs for two hours every week and is made for young British Asians.
  • It covers the topics that matter most to them like what’s trending online, questions of identity, mental health etc.
  • Amber Haque and the other hosts will share the show in turns, each talking about the issues they know and care about.
  • The network is moving to Birmingham as part of bigger changes behind the scenes.

Speaking up isn’t always easy. This show gives young people a space where their voices can be heard. Music on the radio, sure. Bhangra, Bollywood hits, endless remixes. But real conversations about identity, family pressure, mental health? Rarely. Until now.

From 27 October, Asian Network Trending goes live every Wednesday night for two hours of speech instead of beats. The first hour dives into trending news; the second hour goes deeper into family expectations, workplace racism, LGBTQ+ issues, and mental health stigma. And it’s not just one voice. Amber Haque and other rotating presenters keep it fresh.
