Saif has a ball at Marrakech fest
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,November 14 2005]
Adulation by fans in Morocco, a dinner with Martin Scorsese and the best of ethnic Indian clothes - could Saif Ali Khan have asked for more!
"It is pretty awesome," says Saif, getting his first whiff of festival adulation at Marrakech.
"Yashji (Yash Chopra) and I are the only representatives from Bollywood. I'm representing Karan Johar, Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta for 'Kal Ho Na Ho'," says Saif sounding blissful and a little incredulous.
In the night he was supposed to have dinner with Martin Scorsese. "It's quite an honour. I haven't really been part of the festival circuit. First the National award back home, now this...I feel extremely proud and Indian wearing all the achkans, sherwanis and kurtas. It feels...cool!"
Saif has been on an extended vacation for the last three weeks. Dividing his time between his ladylove Rosa's family in Zurich and his own parents in London, he's all charged and ready to come back to India.
