Mumbai: With mystery still shrouding the famous Kareena-Shahid split, the idea of watching a jilted love triangle based on Kareena-Shahid and Saif onscreen did stir interest among audiences. But as engrossing and spicy as it may sound, Chhote Nawab is not amused. Unlike his leading lady and her ex-flame Shahid, who have opted to stay mum on the subject, Saif Ali Khan has lashed out at filmmakers trying to capitalise on Bebo’s love life.
Appalled and strangely amused, Saif said, "I am a little upset that my character is called Saifee. It should have had a cooler name, Sameer or something like that. But honestly, on a more serious note, it can be very offensive for Kareena. I think it is a tasteless thing to do, trying to get excitement and publicity based on Kareena`s life. Abroad, people do write tacky stories based on celebrities` lives, but this is India. I also read on the net that the main character of the film is supposed to be a prostitute; I think that`s not funny at all. I am half amused and half disgusted."
Out to clear all controversies, the actor also denied earlier reports suggesting that he had undergone Botox treatment to get that younger look for his debut production ‘Love Aaj Kal’. "No, not true. It is healthier living. It`s the combination of yoga and weights that`s working big time. I think everyone should do it. Also, I have been off smoking and drinking since a long time. That has helped me big time too", clarified the actor.
