The official account of Eros Now took to Twitter to unveil the first look of Saif Ali Khan as naga sadhu. “Raakh se janmaa, raakh ho jaane ko,” the tweet read.
The story of the film is a journey ridden with drama, revenge, and deceit.
In an interview with Midday Saif said, “I play a revengeful Naga Sadhu. He kills a British soldier, and wears a bandana to look cool.I had to give 2 hours of my day for the makeup. My son Ibrahim and Karisma Kapoor’s son Kiaan felt it resembled Jack Sparrow of Pirates Of The Carribean, I never noticed or would have never done it.”
Shot in the lesser known pockets of Rajasthan, Khan reveals that they filmed in “mud and heat” to add depth to its bitter premise.
Saif Ali Khan will also be seen in the second season of his web series titled Sacred Games 2.
