Saif Ali Khan copies his father-in-law

Mumbai: If Saif Ali Khan’s mannerisms in Humshakals strike up a sense of déja vu in you, then that’s probably because of his inspiration. The chhote nawaab has looked up to his father-in-law Randhir Kapoor for inspiration in essaying his character. “He’s hilariously brought to the screen, the quirky hand gestures and head movements that comprised Randhir Kapoor’s ‘style’, for scenes in Humshakals,” a source close to the actor told us.

“It was Saif’s idea to bring Randhir’s behaviour back on screen as he finds his father-in-law very quirky and amusing in real life.” And if you’re wondering how Saif’s wife Kareena reacted, we hear that she took this depiction of her dad in the right spirit.
