Saif Ali Khan is a name that needs no introduction. This handsome hero who bagged many hits in his career never managed to achieve what the other three Khans achieved but he created a name for himself with love stories and action thrillers. Known for his controlled acting, Saif had a pretty long career and the actor is still going strong despite his daughter being one of the crazy young heroines in Bollywood and his son arriving in movies soon.
The versatile actor gradually changed his image from the conventional hero to an artist who selects interesting roles. He played intense roles in projects like ‘Vikram Vedha’ and ‘Sacred Games’ while he was the villain in movies like ‘Tanhaji’ and others. As we know, he is the antagonist in Prabhas’ upcoming mythological drama ‘Adipurush’. Sources say that he is looking forward to more offers from South these days.
Grapevine suggests that he is the frontrunner for the antagonist’s role in NTR’s pan-Indian project under Koratala Siva’s direction. He is finalized as per reports but the makers are yet to reveal it. Sources say that he is given a hefty paycheque for this movie.
As we know, Sanjay Dutt turned into a South Indian villain lately. He stunned everyone with his menacing look in ‘KGF – 2’ and he is the main bad guy in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s upcoming project ‘Leo’ with Thalapathy Vijay. Previously, the character artists from the North used to play villain roles in the South. Now, the big senior heroes of North are showing interest in playing the bad guys. This will benefit the filmmakers as it increases the movie’s market value and helps in gaining more reach in the Northern arena.
