Saif Ali Khan Is Upset With Deepika; Says Will Never Ever Work With Her

The usually mild-mannered actor has not taken too kindly to Deepika’s walking out of Abbas-Mustan’s Race 2 at the eleventh hour, leaving the project in an awful predicament.

Things have gotten so uncomfortable between these two one-time profressional co-stars Saif & Deepika that their incomplete film — tentatively titled Cocktail — is suffering some stress in the final phase of shooting.

Says a friend of Saif, “It’s really unfortunate that Deepika walked out of a film where her co-star was Saif. Saif has stood by her repeatedly. He gave her his home production Love Aaj Kal selecting her over his lady love Kareena Kapoor. Then he signed Deepika for his second production Cocktail. It didn’t stop there. Even when his well-wishers told him the pair was getting stale — he signed Prakash Jha’s Aarakshan.”

Now Saif is perhaps justifiably feeling betrayed.

Says Saif’s friend, “Saif worked with Deepika in three films. The least he expected was a certain amount of commitment to the fourth film that they had signed together, specially since this was the most expensive of the four films, and a franchise at that.”

Adds the friend, “Saif is very upset with Deepika. He thinks her behaviour is unprofessional and uncool. Would she have walked out on the project if it had starred Shah Rukh, Salman or Aamir Khan?” Source
