Saif Ali Khan, one of Bollywood's most esteemed actors, is broadening his horizons by taking on roles in South Indian cinema. At a recent press conference, Khan, who is playing the lead antagonist in the upcoming film "Devara," expressed his admiration for Telugu cinema, highlighting its growing prominence in the Indian film industry.

Khan pointed out that Bollywood films are increasingly viewed as just one part of Indian cinema, with South Indian films—particularly Telugu—emerging as the true representative of Indian cinema. He emphasized the shift towards a more inclusive approach, where films bring together actors from various regions to create pan-Indian content.

"I am fortunate to have learned a bit of Telugu, as it seems to be the language of the future," Khan said. He urged actors to learn new languages and step out of their comfort zones to adapt to this evolving landscape. According to Khan, this approach not only enriches their craft but also aligns with the future of Indian cinema.

"Devara Part 1," featuring Saif Ali Khan in a pivotal role, is set to release on September 27th. Khan's enthusiasm for Telugu cinema underscores a broader trend where the South Indian film industry is increasingly influencing the national film narrative.
