Like wife Kareena Kapoor Khan who flew down to Mumbai from London for a day to honour a professional commitment last week, Saif Ali Khan too made a quick trip to the Bay. The Nawab of Pataudi arrived in the city on Wednesday to promote his upcoming web series, Sacred Games, India's first original series on Netflix. Last night, he headed back to the Queen's city to join Kapoor and son Taimur on their family vacation. "I prefer it this way — I would like to be in Mumbai when I am working, otherwise, I'm happy to be on a holiday," said Khan.

The actor was filmmaker-duo Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap's first choice to play cop Sartaj Singh in the adaptation of Vikram Chandra's famed novel by the same name. If collaborating with indie filmmakers such as Kashyap and Motwane is a first, the gritty drama - that sees him teaming up with co-actors Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Radhika Apte - also marks his debut on the digital platform. "I don't mind doing a web show every year. I did Sacred Games because it was interesting."
