Saif Ali Khan reacts to Sacred Games controversy

Saif Ali Khan is winning raves for his outstanding performance in the Netflix original Sacred Games which premiered on 6th July, 2018. Though critics and audiences have showered loads of love on the series, recently some politicians in India raised their objection over portraying former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in a bad light.

Talking over the controversy, National award-winning actor Saif said in an interview, “If you date someone from the wrong caste, somebody will kill you in some parts of India. That’s just the way it is. I don’t know how much you can criticise your government in India, somebody might kill you.”


He went on to add, “It will be deeply frustrating if something happens to the show. If someone says you can’t air this or if Netflix is discontinued. Then that will be my turn to be outraged.”

Talking about Khan’s upcoming film projects, the actor will next be seen in Baazaar. Besides that, he is also shooting for Navdeep Singh’s untitled war movie which is being produced by Aanand L Rai.

A quiet opening that sets the divide

Razid Season’s short film Elijah opens on an unassuming domestic moment: a family seated around a dining table. The parents eat with their hands, while their daughter uses a spoon. The contrast, subtle but deliberate, signals the generational gap that underpins the film. This divide soon sharpens when the child resists her mother’s insistence on traditional clothing and asks to be called Elijah.

Further tension emerges when the father dismisses same-sex relationships while watching a television news segment, unaware that his own child is already questioning both gender and identity. Season avoids direct explanation, allowing everyday interactions to reveal the growing distance between parents and child.
