Now Saif wants to do Hamlet!

Even as his performance in Omkara has left many stunned, actor Saif Ali Khan says he wants to do something bigger and Shakespearean with Vishal Bhardwaj.

In Omkara, an adaptation of Othello, Saif plays the Indianized Iago, probably the most challenging role he has played till now. Unarguably, it is Saif who gets the maximum footage in the film and his performance merits an award.

While Vishal Bhardwaj has vowed to stay off the Shakespeare for at least two years, Saif says he hopes to work in another Bhardwaj movie, possibly an adaptation of Hamlet.

Saif says he wants the next film to be even bigger than Omkara.

Vishal has revealed in an interview that he would complete his trilogy with either Hamlet (another tragedy) or The Midsummer Night’s Dream (a comedy).

But it is not going to happen in the near future, as Bhardwaj wants to make a film on an original story first.
