We've all seen the dapper Saif Ali Khan don several roles. From a suave charmer to a macho man, Saif has done it all. 

But with his next, he will take you by surprise as he plans to play a lawyer on screen. 

Filmmaker Nikhil Advani, who directed Saif in 'Kal Ho Naa Ho' recently offered Saif a thriller in which the protagonist is a lawyer by profession. 

Saif loved the script and immediately gave a nod for the film as he found his character very interesting. 

His character plays a very ruthless lawyer with a kind heart. And Saif found the multi-layered character interesting enough to take the plunge for and hence he immediately signed the film without giving it a second thought. 

While both Saif and Nikhil are busy with their respective films, the two intend to start their aforementioned film as soon as possible.
