Bollywood’s resident nawab, Saif Ali Khan, made a striking style statement at the India vs England match at Lord’s in London. While his impeccably tailored suit effortlessly commanded attention, it was a subtle, deeply meaningful accessory that truly defined his ensemble—a special tie rooted in history and elite tradition.

The Haiwaan actor was seen wearing an Old Wykehamist tie, the official alumni tie of Winchester College, one of England’s most prestigious schools. In the UK, donning one’s old school tie is a proud symbol of heritage, legacy, and tradition. It was a fitting choice for Saif, who has long been known for embracing and celebrating history, culture, and timeless traditions through his personal style.

On the work front, Saif Ali Khan will be seen in Haiwaan, set to release on 11th September. The actor reunites with Akshay Kumar in the film directed by Priyadarshan.

Saif Ali Khan is known to take on some of the most challenging roles of his career, Haiwaan being on of them. The actor will be seen playing a visually disabled character who will be seen in an action avatar. While the posters have teased his look from the film, Saif has described his role as ‘blind samurai,’ calling it one of the most amazing roles he’s done.

“It’s one of the most amazing roles I’ve been offered because it’s such a sympathetic character. In my head, I get to play an Indian version of a blind samurai. How cool is that? He’s blind, but he’s specially-abled. He can somehow sense things, fight, catch a ball, and protect a young girl. It was fascinating to find the physicality of that without making it look exaggerated,” Saif said in a recent interview.

Talking about working with Priyadarshan, Saif said, “It was something completely new for me. More importantly, it’s a character written for the audience to genuinely feel for, which I haven’t really had much of, for whatever reason. I’m really happy I got this role. Working with Priyadarshan sir was amazing. It reminded me of Clint Eastwood. Very economical and absolutely sure of what he wanted. We rarely did more than one take. I like doing a few takes, but you adapt to whoever you’re working with. It was interesting to be completely ready for that very first take, and somehow it really worked.”

Haiwaan is set to release on 11th September in theatres.

Addressing the audience, Saif said that while the world remembers Tiger Pataudi as “a dashing and courageous batsman, one of the world’s best fielders, and one of India’s greatest captains who changed the way we played cricket,” he remembers his father as “a man of few words.”

“I knew him respectfully as Abba, a man of very few words who somehow said everything that mattered. Growing up, cricket was everywhere in our home. Everyone played – drivers, staff, family, cousin, gardeners. Cricket was always a great equaliser and taught us to respect people from an early age,” Saif said.

The Kartavya actor also recalled how his father refused to let his eye injury become a limitation, continuing to chase perfection with unwavering determination. “I never heard him describe the loss as an adversity. To him, it was simply a fact. Something to adjust to. Something to work harder around. And perhaps that is what defined him most. Not brilliance alone – but composure. He believed leadership was not about commanding attention, but about earning trust by being open and above all fair,” he shared.

“He believed in belief – instilling self belief in Indian players who had never before been told they could dominate world cricket. At a time when Indian teams were expected merely to participate, he insisted they compete to win. And that massive change of mindset, I think, was one of his great contributions,” Saif added.

The actor also confessed that Tiger Pataudi rarely spoke about his cricket milestones at home. “At home, he rarely spoke about achievements. He rarely spoke about anything. My mother would be exasperated at dinners and get togethers with people less informed than him would be giving their opinion. He would say no one asked me, but he wouldn’t speak, because no one asked him. It was a very different brand of confidence,” he said.

“As I grow little older, I realise remembering the past and honouring past heroes becomes more and more important. Tiger Pataudi was my hero and I can go on and on about him all night,” Saif added.

The actor said the lecture was not just about remembering Tiger Pataudi as a cricketer, but about celebrating the values he stood for: leadership, courage, resilience, and excellence. He added that true legacy is not measured by trophies, but by the influence one leaves behind and the inspiration passed on to future generations.

He concluded the speech by saying, “If my father were here this evening, he would probably be slightly embarrassed by all this attention and then quietly pleased that the conversation remained about cricket, ideas, and the future. So on behalf of our family, thank you – for remembering him not as a figure from the past, but as a continuing presence in the spirit of the game. Thank you for keeping Tiger alive where he belonged most – among lovers of sport. And thank you all for being here tonight.”

Directed by Pulkit and produced by Gauri Khan under the banner of Red Chillies Entertainment, Kartavya follows Pawan (Khan), a police officer under intense scrutiny after failing to protect a journalist who is shot while under his watch. As pressure mounts from his senior officers, Pawan is drawn into a relentless manhunt for the assailant, one that pulls him deep into a web of power, influence, and deception.

At the same time, his personal life begins to unravel as his family is threatened over a dispute involving his brother, pulling Pawan into conflict both within the system and at home. As the case deepens, he finds himself torn between duty and family, where every choice carries a cost.

Speaking about the film, Saif Ali Khan said, “Pawan is a man constantly negotiating with himself, between what he believes is right, what’s expected of him, and what he must protect. What drew me to Kartavya is that it doesn’t offer easy answers; it puts you in uncomfortable spaces and forces you to ask what you would do when every choice comes at a personal cost. Working with Pulkit and the entire cast made this journey even more compelling and thrilling. It’s been especially exciting to collaborate with Red Chillies Entertainment for the first time on a project as layered as Kartavya. We’re excited for audiences across the world to engage with this story on Netflix.”

Talking about the film, Pulkit shared, “Kartavya is a story that lives in the grey, where every choice carries a cost and certainty is always out of reach. We set out to craft a grounded, emotionally charged narrative that looks beyond the surface of crime to explore the human conflict at its core. All the actors have brought immense depth to their characters, and with Saif bringing remarkable restraint to a deeply conflicted role, the film invites audiences to reflect on what justice really means when personal stakes are involved. My second association with Red Chillies Entertainment and Netflix has been incredibly fulfilling, and we’re excited to bring this story to audiences worldwide.”

With its brooding tone and character-driven storytelling, Kartavya is a gripping exploration of conscience, consequence, and the cost of doing what is right.

Kartavya premieres on Netflix on 15 May.

#SanjayDutt – KGF Chapter 2 – Having defined his range in his initial years with Khal Nayak, Saajan, Rocky and more, Sanjay Dutt stepped into the shoes of a raw and menacing antagonist Adheera in the blockbuster KGF Chapter 2. The actor, known for his versatility and a striking ability to exude terror with his expressive eyes, received praise for his imposing screen presence and also for bringing a real gangster feel with his Viking-inspired look.

#SaifAliKhan – Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior – Saif Ali Khan, who dominated the early era with his boyish charm and boy-next-door appeal, delivered a widely acclaimed performance as the deadly antagonist Udaybhan Singh Rathore in the hit release, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior.

The audience strongly feels that the actor brings incredible believability to portraying negative characters on-screen, often becoming the natural pick to breathe life to grey-shaded characters.

#RMadhavan – Shaitaan – Maddy ruled back then in Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein, and now R Madhavan rules as the chilling Shaitaan! Though the actor continues to carry the charm of the iconic Maddy, his off-beat outing in Shaitaan displayed a new shade of his versatility. At times when the audience hadn’t expected him to step into a grey shade, the actor dived headfirst!

#BobbyDeol – Animal – You know him in Aashiq, Barsaat, Soldier and more, but it surely seemed like Bobby Deol hit a reboot by stepping into the shoes of the chilling villain named Abrar in Animal. He ignited a new wave, setting the standard of villains in today’s Bollywood. From the viral introduction scene to the gruesome climax, Bobby Deol earned all due praise and appreciation for the right reasons.

This reunion marks a significant moment in Saiyami’s journey, symbolizing growth, persistence, and the realization of dreams that once felt distant. From a budding performer to now leading a film alongside one of the industry’s most established actors, her trajectory reflects both evolution and resilience.

Speaking about this full-circle moment, Saiyami Kher shared, “I had shot for one of my very first campaigns as a model for an eyewear brand where Saif Sir was the brand ambasador. I remember even back then almost 12 years ago he was so funny and so chilled.. I have greatly admired his work and it felt so could to share the screen with him in Priyan sirs film all these years later… it’s incredible how he looks exactly the same ”

Saiyami adds, “Reuniting with him after 12 years for Haiwaan feels like life has come around in the most beautiful way. There’s a certain sense of familiarity, Saif has been incredibly warm and gracious, and working with him now, as an equal collaborator, has been extremely comforting.

She concludes, “What makes this even more special is that it’s happening with a film like Haiwaan, which has such a strong narrative and vision under Priyadarshan sir’s direction. As actors, just working with someone who has so much experience.. watching his clarity gives me so much to learn.. It’s not just about nostalgia it’s about growth, about how far you’ve come, and about acknowledging those early moments that quietly shape your journey. I think as actors, we rarely pause to reflect, but experiences like this make you look back and feel grateful for the opportunities, the learning, and the people who have been part of your journey, even in small ways. This reunion is very special to me, not just professionally, but emotionally as well.”

With Haiwaan, Saiyami Kher not only steps into a compelling new narrative but also celebrates a milestone that beautifully bridges her past and present, making this collaboration one to watch out for.
