A long time ago someone told me that Saif has been compared to Shashi Kapoor in his early career (affable romantic lead who doesn't always make a strong impression, I think they mean? - quite unfairly) and now I'm seeing it in the projects he chooses to back with either his acting or his production house (or both). <br /><br />NAWAZ 4 BOND! Did you see Kick and if so did you dig his OTT villainy?

B...I absolutely hated the hell out of Happy Ending. But I think it's a case of high expectations not being met. If I had known that it was a regular Rom-Com, I might have liked it...but the director duo made me expect far more from them with 99 and Go Goa Gone (even Shor in The City to some extent). I totally agree that Saif's choice of roles is far superior to anyone else close to his age.<br /><br />But all that aside, let's make the Nawazuddin as Bond villain thing happen!!! I'd watch the shit out of that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-86205954845134067012015-03-29T12:56:50.600-05:002015-03-29T12:56:50.600-05:00Yep!
