When Saif Ali Khan BIT A BUM for Shashi Kapoor!

Saif Ali Khan’s mother, the legendary actress Sharmila Tagore and the late legend, Shashi Kapoor have worked in many films together. So, it’s kinda natural for Saif to be acquainted with life on a film set at a very early age.

Shashiji, being a part of the royal Kapoor family, was gifted with the compulsion to flirt with the forbidden with flair and illegally good looks. Although there were many men his age who envied him and many women who drooled over him, there was a young and adorable Saif who took a liking to Shashi at a very early age and formed a bond with him unlike any other.

Speaking about the same, Saif Ali Khan became candid and shared, “Even as a child, the first thing that struck me about Shashi uncle were his good looks. Boy, how handsome was he!”

After which, he went on to narrate a very funny incident by saying, “I was barely three and I had accompanied Amma to the shoot. On the sets, I saw the villain whipping him and no one was coming forward to help him. Every time the whip cracked, I winced. Then, very bravely, I went and bit the villain on his bum. Everyone including Shashi uncle was aghast. Later, he explained to me that everything I saw was make-believe and it was just a film’s shoot. So, there was no reason for me to be angry,”

Boy, wasn’t it really cute of the little Nawab back then?

On the work front, Saif will be soon seen in Kaalakandi and then a Netflix Original series, Sacred Games.
