Saif Ali Khan is well read and widely educated. He may come across as a playful actor with a certain amount of temper issues, but he isn’t a person who minces words. His recent column in Indian Express on intermarriages have been greatly appreciated everywhere for its secular colour. Here are our observations on the column.
Saif revealed how things were tough for Senior Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore to settle down as both belonged to separate religions. They had to ward off death threats to become one. Even his grandmother had to fight for her love and so his family as always been a crusader for love. Even he faced similar threats when he married Kareena. n
