Why ‘Baazaar’ was worth it for Saif

-

Actor Saif Ali Khan says doing Baazaar was a big risk, and he is glad that it paid off well.

In Baazaar, Khan plays a small town boy who becomes a cut-throat stock trader known for his business acumen. “My role in Baazaar was challengin­g for many reasons. Apart from exploring a subject centred around the stock market, which hasn’t been done before, my character was also very layered with shades of grey,” Khan said. “It was a risk and I’m glad it paid off.”

Baazaar also stars Chitrangda Singh and Radhika Apte.

The Gauravv K Chawla directoria­l is being appreciate­d for tackling a different subject in a relatable manner.

Trade expert Taran Adarsh on Monday tweeted about the film’s takings at the box office saying that it was doing well, bringing in a total of Rs119.3 million (Dh5.9 million) over three days in India.
