It seems that paternity break has become the new norm as after cricketer Virat Kohli, Saif Ali Khan has taken it to make sure he stays by his wife Kareena Kapoor and second born after his birth. While the Prabhas starrer Adipurush goes on floor this month, Saif, who portrays the character of Lankesh will join the shoot in the last week of March. Director Om Raut confirmed the news and told BT, "Saif sir and Prabhas have been prepping for the film extensively for the last three-four months. At this moment, my team is excited for the shoot to commence. They are preparing the final schedule. From where I see it, Saif sir is on paternity leave and will join the shoot sometime in March this year. It's a deep, extensive story. We plan to shoot all the way up to August."
Earlier, Saif expressed his excitement for Adipurush and said, "I'm thrilled to be working with Omi dada again! He has a grand vision and the technical knowledge to really pull it off. He has taken me beyond the cutting edge of our cinema in the way he shot Tanhaji and this time he is taking us all further! It's a phenomenal project and I'm super thrilled to be a part of it! I look forward to clashing swords with the mighty Prabhas and to play a role that is electrifying and demonic!"
While the filmmaker Om asserted, "To play the strongest villain from our Epic we needed a brilliant actor. Who better than Saif Ali Khan, one of the greatest actor of our lifetime, to essay this powerful role. Personally, I enjoy every day at work with him. I am looking forward to this exciting journey with him all over again." The film is scheduled to release on 11th August 2022. So, are you excited for it? Tweet and let us know @bollywood_life.
