t the trailer launch of Baazaar, Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan remarked that he wants to choose exciting roles and likes challenging himself
as an actor. He said, “I don’t think of my work anymore as business, where I am trying to make money. By the grace of God, I feel secure. I
Awant to choose exciting roles and I want to challenge myself. I want to do exciting things. It’s such a great time for movies. The kind of roles
that one is offered are so different from what they used to be. We are looking at the future. We are pushing boundaries. So, it’s nice to reinvent.”
The actor stands out in the trailer of Baazaar and according to Saif, he is better than ever as an actor.

“I feel, as an actor, I am better than ever and more interested than I have ever been. I am also learning new things. I am getting better every day
and I am enjoying the growth that’s happening,” Saif Ali
Khan said during a media interaction at the trailer launch
of Bazaar.
Since Baazaar is about a Gujarati businessman who
only has money on his mind, Saif was asked about
his thoughts about big businessmen like Mehul Choksi
and Vijay Mallya stealing money and running to other
countries.

He said, “It is terrible. It is horrible. We want less
corruption, less scams. We have a very honest line of
work. We try to make films, we try to sell films. Most
of the times the press catches movie stars to make
examples of. You should catch these guys and lambast
them every day. Seriously, you should, you know. We are
nothing, but small people. The big game is happening
somewhere else. We don’t know what the game is. And
people say that this one did this, this one did that, and the
people are happy. It is like a dustbin. Some celebrities,
you know. You get happy with that. You need people to
blame but the real people who should be blamed are the
ones who are stealing your money.”

Directed by Gauravv K. Chawla, Baazaar is scheduled to
release on October 26. Along with Saif Ali Khan, the film
stars Radhika Apte, Chitrangada Singh and debutant
Rohan Mehra, son of late actor Vinod Mehra.
