Saif Ali Khan Quits Wedding Performances: Why He's Stepping Back

Saif Ali Khan has candidly shared his decision to cease performing at weddings, explaining that the practice no longer aligns with his current perspective. He clarified this is a personal choice influenced by his upbringing and advancing age, contrasting with his younger days when such performances felt more natural.

Recalling an incident where his aunt questioned his participation, Saif highlighted the social dichotomy actors face. He believes that while performing at weddings abroad, particularly in a curated setting, felt acceptable, similar events within India can feel more public and intense. This has led him to become more discerning about his public appearances.

While acknowledging that performing at high-profile weddings for substantial pay was common earlier in his career, Saif now finds it less comfortable. He emphasized that such decisions are individual and do not reflect negatively on other actors who continue to engage in wedding performances.
