Saif Ali Khan recalled anecdotes from the shoot of Jewel Thief- The Heist Begins. Jewel Thief- The Heist Begins, the action heist thriller starring Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor and Nikita Dutta was released recently. The film, produced by Siddharth Anand, is based on a high-octane battle surrounding a diamond heist.
After the film’s release, Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Siddharth Anand recently appeared on IMDb and shared their experience shooting the film and behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the sets. Saif Ali Khan said, “I remember my first day, it was very late at night. We started at 1 AM.
I would finish at about 5 AM as the light came up. It was the first time I met Jaideep. As usual, I hated myself because it was the first day.
Sometimes, to be honest, I don’t know what I’m doing. It takes a while to get used to it, I was a little nervous. A little tired.
A little lost." He added, “I was shooting with Jaideep sir’s dog in the movie, and it’s a massive rottweiler. I didn’t know they were that big.
The owner said you can do whatever you want with it. I was feeding it biscuits and playing with it. At one point, I pulled it slightly.
It growled at me in the most ferocious way, and then he said that you can do what you want, but don’t pull it." Sharing what surprised them about each other, Jaideep Ahlawat said, “I’m surprised just working with him (Saif). I’ve done something good that I’m working with him, that’s a surprise for me also.
" Meanwhile, Saif Ali Khan said, “I was surprised by how thin he was. The last time I saw him as Hathiram (Ahlawat’s character in Paatal Lok), he was looking quite solid. Here he was lean, mean, badass, very sexy, giving young Sanjay Dutt vibes to me.
The other thing, I shouldn’t have been surprised, but I was, was the commitment to the reality of the shots.".
