Anushka Sharma on the twists of ‘Phillauri’

Saif Ali Khan is known to have changed his habits in recent years. He was advised by doctors to stop smoking and  he made this change. However, he had to make an exception for his forthcoming film ‘Rangoon’, a Vishal Bhardwaj directorial.

A source spoke to Deccan Chronicle and revealed, “While Saif was shooting for Rangoon, his character Rustom Rusi Bilimoria, a filmmaker, had to be seen smoking cigarettes in a few scenes with his international co-star Rebecca. Saif was off cigarettes for a long time but picked it up only on camera for his role. The actor had to take a few puffs for some scenes and he was fine with making this exception because the script demanded it”.

‘Rangoon’ also stars Shahid Kapoor and Kangna Ranaut. It’s slated for release on 24th February.
