Mumbai (Showbiz Desk) — Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan has called working in the 2012 film Cocktail a mistake in his career, saying it was a somewhat regressive choice of script.
Fourteen years after the film’s release, Saif Ali Khan has also revealed why he accepted the role of Gautam in the film, directed by Homi Adajania. Saif is known for taking on diverse roles throughout his career, and Cocktail was also an important film at a significant stage of his career.
In the romantic comedy, Saif Ali Khan starred alongside Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty.
In a recent interview, Saif described his performance in the film as a mistake and explained that one of the major reasons he became part of the project was that he was also its producer.
According to the actor, since he was financially backing the film, he wanted the project to be completed and eventually released in cinemas. Saif admitted that he knew from the very beginning that Veronica was the most interesting character in the film.
