Saif Ali Khan Reveals He Won’t Work With Wife Kareena

Cinema is like a living stage, each choice changes the scene. For Saif Ali Khan, working with his wife Kareena Kapoor again is not something he wants. It’s not about disagreements but about keeping his craft alive. Saif believes acting works best when there is a fresh spark, a challenge that pushes boundaries. For him, working with a spouse takes away that tension and energy.

Saif opened up in a recent interview, saying, “In the 90s, people said I was lucky to get chances. But strong scripts were missing. When I tried different roles, things changed. I work best when my co-stars push me beyond comfort. That doesn’t happen with a spouse.” For Saif, every role is a test, and comfort makes it easier to settle rather than challenge yourself.

Their films together, LOC Kargil, Omkara, and Agent Vinod, are remembered well, but Saif sees them as rare moments. “It may seem simple to work with someone close. But healthy competition keeps the craft alive. When you work with your wife or friends, it can take away that edge,” he explained. His decision is about preserving that spark, not avoiding collaboration for personal reasons.

Saif is breaking the usual trend. In Bollywood, couples often work together, but he is choosing otherwise. For him, it’s about keeping his craft sharp, not taking the easy route. Stepping away from Kareena on screen is his way of chasing fresh challenges. For fans, it’s not just a decision, it’s a clear glimpse into Saif’s thinking as an actor who values growth over comfort.
