As hard as it is to believe now, Saif Ali Khan was once a pathetic actor that showed about as much emotional range as Riya Sen and was set to be labelled the first coming of Tusshar Kapoor (Or Tusshar could have been called the second coming of Saif... whatever. I'm not fussy). That is until friend, Farhan Akhtar, offered the beleaguered filmi kid the role of Sameer in Dil Chahta Hai. The film's success catapulted Saif into the A league, and can be credited with changing the course of his career and allowing him to date Kareena Kapoor (C'mon now, who thinks Kareena would date Saif if he was a C-Lister? I mean... it didn't work out with Shahid. She probably wouldn't risk it again. Yes, Shahid fans. I just called the ape-faced one a C-Lister.)
So... You'd think Saif would be grateful, right?
Wrong. When Saif was requested to do a cameo in Farhan Akhtar's upcoming, Voice from the Sky, he asked for a figure approaching 20 Crore. This was obviously out of the Indie films budget... Especially considering the fact that Farhan expected Saif to work for a grand fee of... Zip.
It sucks when you forget your friends. Saif needs to follow my example. I'm extremely loyal to all my friends. I never forget where I come from. I once used to hang out with the nerds (Before the "cool kids" accepted that I was in fact one of them). I still acknowledge the nerds when I see them. And I feel they appreciate the fact that now people notice them.
... I mean before no one even used to notice them. No one. But now... Well, let's just say it's hard not to notice someone wearing a "Kick me" sign.
I'm a great friend.
