Saif Ali’s title blues continue



January 15th, 2009

Saif Ali Khan’s first home production, starring himself opposite Deepika Padukone has completed shooting but it is still yet to be given an apt title. It seems the Chote Nawab, Imtiaz Ali and title confusions go hand in hand nowadays as one can clearly remember Saif’s last release, Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic too faced a similar probled and was given its title just weeks before its release. Whereas Imtiaz’s last directed film, Jab We Met to had a title fixation problem and a online poll was introduced to finalize the title.

Saif’s maiden production venture, a romantic comedy directed by Imtiaz Ali is about love in today’s time. It is learnt that Saif, Imtiaz and Eros International, co-producers with the actor-producer, have zeroed in on a few titles but the first two choices seem to be Aaj Kal and Love Aaj Kal. But they are still unsure which one to go ahead. If you ask us, well Love Aaj Kal sounds more youth-appealing and should look better than a Aaj Kal which sounds a bit dated. Saif is nowadays asking everyone he encounters which of these titles will suit the film better.
