Saif Ali Khan recently shared a story involving his son Taimur and the much-talked-about film 'Adipurush' and it will surely make you chuckle. The actor admitted he had to say sorry to his son after showing him the film, and luckily, the little one forgave him.
‘He Forgave Me’: Saif’s Funny Moment with Taimur
In a fun chat shared by Netflix India on YouTube, Saif was asked by his co-star Jaideep Ahlawat whether his kids watch his films. Saif’s answer was both amusing and telling. He said, “I just showed him Adipurush recently. Then, after a while, he started giving me a look. Then I said, ‘Yeah, sorry.’ He said, ‘It’s okay.’ He forgave me.” Saif’s response shows he’s not only self-aware but also doesn’t mind poking fun at his own work.
What Went Wrong with 'Adipurush'?
Released in 2023, 'Adipurush' was meant to be a grand re-telling of the Hindu epic 'Ramayana'. Directed by Om Raut, the film starred Prabhas as Raghava (Lord Ram), Kriti Sanon as Janaki (Sita), and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, a modern and darker take on Ravana.
The makers promised stunning visuals, epic storytelling, and a fresh twist to the classic tale. But when the film hit cinemas, it faced massive backlash. Viewers criticised the film for its poor visual effects and strange dialogues that didn’t sit well with audiences. Many fans also felt that the film didn’t do justice to the grandeur and emotion of the original Ramayana. The negative reviews soon took over social media, making 'Adipurush' one of the most criticised films of the year.

While the 'Adipurush' chapter might not be Saif’s proudest moment, he hasn’t let it slow him down. He’s back on screen with OTT film 'Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins', co-starring Jaideep Ahlawat, Nikita Dutta, and Kunal Kapoor.
