Saif Ali Khan turning to action flicks

He has played the romantic boy roles and he has played the villain as well. Now, Saif Ali Khan seems eager for some adrenalin pumping action on the silver screen.

Saif has already been approached by filmmaker Anil Sharma, known for his jingoistic and violent films (like Gadar ), for his next movie, an action-packed thriller. And Saif, who has just completed the shooting of Tara Rum Pum (a candyfloss romantic tale) is excited about trying something different.

Saif is considering Sharma’s offer and hasn’t given his consent yet. On another front, Saif has also showed interest in Gautam Menon’s next movie, a stylish action film with a lot of special effects. Stunt experts from Hollywood would be roped in for this movie.

Although Saif has not signed this movie as well, sources close to the actor say that he is seriously looking forward to work in a full-fledged action flick.

Some reports say Saif is even willing to go through rigorous physical training if the movie’s script and concept excites him.
