In a career spanning three decades, Saif Ali Khan has done films across genres. The actor is currently working on two highly anticipated projects — Vikram Vedha co-starring Hrithik Roshan and Adipurush with actors Kriti Sanon and Prabhas — and he wants to continue experimenting with roles.

Ask if any genre is yet to be explored by him, and Khan says, “So many roles and genres still haven’t come my way. But, it’s not really about the genre. It’s about doing the same thing differently and doing it better. So, even the roles that I’ve already done, I think I would approach them differently [if I do them now]. It’s an exciting time and I look forward to a lot of things (interesting subjects).”

On the work front, he is currently busy with Vikram Vedha. “Other than that, I have been busy working out, cooking, hanging out with family, watching TV and reading,” he adds.

Besides being occupied with his ongoing acting commitments, the 51-year-old has also been taking a keen interest in his business. He was recently awarded for his venture, House of Pataudi. But isn’t juggling two time-consuming commitments hard? “Being creative, my mind keeps working. If I sit at home for a long time, I will start getting creative with where to hang the paintings and where to keep the books,” says the actor.

Rishabh Suri is an Assistant Editor, film critic, and professional overthinker of plot points. He writes for HT City, keeping pace with an industry where news cycles expire long before the popcorn gets cold. He completed his graduation in English Honours from Kirori Mal College, followed by a Master’s degree in English Literature-effectively training his brain to over-analyse classic texts before applying those exact same skills to 3-hour Bollywood blockbusters. He got into the profession when he had barely graduated from college and has been at HT ever since. At HT, Rishabh reviews films with a simple rule: skip the dense academic jargon and get straight to the point. Beyond reviews, as Assistant Editor, he helps navigate the broader circus of showbiz, tracking everything from OTT shifts to sudden box office panics. In a beat driven by loud PR machinery and carefully scripted answers, Rishabh prefers cutting through the noise to focus on how stories get made and why trends shift. When he isn’t writing against a deadline, he is usually sitting in a dark theater, compulsively memorising dialogues. For Rishabh, analysing movies isn't just a day job- it’s a habit he couldn't turn off even if he tried.
