Saif mentioned that people often suggested he inherited his cricketing talent from his mother, hinting at a genetic legacy from the Tagore family. However, he acknowledged that he lacked the mental focus required for cricket during his youth, stating that the sport didn't resonate with him. He expressed a deep love for acting, affirming that it was the right choice for him.
When asked about his son Ibrahim ali Khan and whether he seeks career advice, Saif noted that Ibrahim is yet to make his bollywood debut and doesn’t frequently ask for guidance.
