At the recently-concluded Zee awards in Malaysia Saif Ali Khan who compered the show in giggly camaraderie with Karan Johar, shocked and embarrassed the audience
by proclaiming from stage, 'What's Rishi Kapoor thinking? Maybe... 'Where's the bar'
Chuckles, Saif, "It was pretty horrifying, wasn't it? But catch me being rude to someone as senior and respected as Mr Rishi Kapoor. That was the line given to us in the
script. When I read it I was appalled.
So you know what I did? On the day before the show I asked Mr Rishi Kapoor about it. He said he was okay with it. Rather
sporting of him."
Saif says he enjoyed the Malaysian experience. "I had gone there alone, and I had loads of fun. But I wish there was some genuinely funny lines that weren't offensive to
anyone given to me to say on stage. All I got were bitchy lines."
