Saif Ali Khan: I’m half-Bengali! I love phuchkas and I love fish!

Saif Ali Khan: I’m half-Bengali! I love phuchkas and I love fish!


Saif Ali Khan doesn’t follow fads. He feels that it’s not necessary for an actor to have a great body and six-pack abs just for show, “It depends on your role. Off screen, we are lucky that we are in a profession that encourages fitness because we tend to look better. I have never been fitness-conscious, especially when I started out but then it was a different time. Now, in India, I think people are quite fitness-obsessed and moving away the from junk or unhealthy food like parathas and pizzas. They are trying to follow healthy eating patterns which is important. As far as staying fit is concerned, it’s all a habit. Sometimes it’s easier to stay fit when you are not working. During work I follow a strict regimented style of diet and exercise. It’s difficult to work out and diet always. You can easily diet, work out and sleep early when you are not working. There is all the time in the world to get it right. The idea is not to be hungry. I find if I’m hungry I start running to eat junk. Then I start eating anything from phuchkas (paanipuri) to bhelpuri.”
Suggest that paanipuri and bhelpuri seems quite unlike him and Saif laughs, “I’m half-Bengali! I love phuchkas and I love fish.” The Nawab can cook too. “I can’t cook may dishes but yes, I can whip up a good spaghetti and some egg dishes. If I’m alone I can manage.” And between biwiKareena and him, Saif admits that he is the better cook. “I haven’t seen Kareena cook anything, except some scrambled eggs once. Though I think she’s vegetarian…” Why not sure, Saifoo?
