Saif Ali Khan Says “My Mother a Great Authority at Censors”

Saif Ali KhanSaif Ali Khan feels ridicule to hear the speculation about her mother, the Censor Chief, Sharmila Tagore, who gave an "A" rating to "Kaminey", because it starred Shahid Kapoor.

He said, "It is ridiculous to state that anyone had any personal bias against 'Kaminey'. "Kurbaan" is about to release Friday with an A certificate".

He added, "I know for sure that my mother is a great authority when it comes to the censors. My own 'Kurbaan' has got an 'A' certificate and I know where she is coming from".

The gossip was aired that Vishal Bharadwaj's "Kaminey" was given 'A' certificate because Shahid was once in a relationship with Saif's current beau Kareena. But Saif said, "Any talks of personal enmity are completely fictional. I don't even know the actual people involved who spread such rumors and frankly I don't care. Such things don't even enter my radar". The actor continued, "It's really rubbish if some people feel so. 'Kurbaan' getting an 'A' certificate is hardly a fitting reply. It's a sad state of affairs when people start speculating about everything and anything. As someone who has been part of the industry for long, I don't take such things seriously."

For 'Kaminey' he said, "I think Vishal is a wonderful filmmaker and I liked everyone's performance in the film."

Saif has never discussed with Sharmila about the 'A' certificates for "Kurbaan" or "Kaminey". He said, "No, I don't talk about any particular movie per se but I do know of her general views and opinions when it comes to censoring a film". He added, "She doesn't have any problems with anything shown on screen. But, yes, she has problems with things that are shown to children. She will ban something if there is something which is inflammatory. Of course, she is the right judge of things and may be I don't know everything that she looks at in a movie during censoring. What I know for sure is that she is a good mother and follows the same caring attitude when it comes to censorship as well".
