Kedarnath feels like my own film is releasing: Saif

Saif was here recently, to promote his forthcoming film Kaalakaandi. He was asked what is he more excited and nervous about – his own film's release, wife Kareena Kapoor Khan's comeback after the birth of their son Taimur or Sara's debut?

He said: "I am scared for all because when films release, you do get a little scared. A lot of people have put in their hard work. Sara (daughter) is also alone and her whole life is in front of her, so it feels like my own film is releasing." Sara stars with Sushant Singh Rajput in Kedarnath, directed by Abhishek Kapoor. Saif said one's maiden film is important.

"This is her dream, so I would want all her her dreams to come true," he added. Talking about Kareena's comeback, he said: "Kareena is a good artist... She has put in so much of hard work and patience that it wouldn't be difficult for her to make a comeback."

But again, if he had to choose what he's most nervous about, Saif said: "The youngest gets the most attention. So, Sara." Saif was also asked to comment on the Supreme Court's order that it is not mandatory to play the national anthem in cinema halls.

He said: "I support the government always, but there are other issues which need attention, like Section 377 (which criminalises homosexuality) ...." Talking about Race 3, he says he was offered a role in the movie, but didn't take it up because he didn't feel the connection with the part he was offered.

"(Producer) Ramesh Taurani said I'm making a completely different movie this time with a totally different story. I was offered a part but Salman Khan is the best thing to happen to anybody. He's the biggest star in the country," Saif said at a press conference here.

"I didn't feel a connection myself with the part I was offered. So, I decided to do something else."

Saif was seen playing a protagonist in Race, which released in 2008 and was also a part of the Race 2 in 2013.
