Deepika Padukone film made Ibrahim realise Saif Ali Khan's stardom

Ibrahim Ali Khan recently recalled a childhood moment that made him realise his father, Saif Ali Khan, was a “big actor”.

Ibrahim, 24, who is the elder son of Hum Tum actor and Amrita Singh, shared his childhood obsession with his father’s project Love Aaj Kal, primarily because of Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone.

During a recent interview with Filmfare, Ibrahim reflected on a childhood moment after being asked how he felt upon realising his parents were famous.

Speaking exclusively, he said, “I was so small and I was obsessed with her. I was like I want to see Deepika. And that’s when I realised my dad is a big actor. Deepika Padukone is doing a movie with him.”

On the professional front, the Indian actor recently made his acting debut in the 2025 film Nadaaniyan.

The Shauna Gautam’s directorial, starring Ibrahim and Khushi Kapoor, premiered on Netflix on March 7.

The romantic-comedy Nadaaniyan was produced by Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra.

For the unversed, the Nadaaniyan actor is gearing up for his upcoming projects, Sarzameen and Diler.
