`Agent Vinod` is larger-than-life: Saif Ali Khan

Mumbai: `Kurbaan` may not have done well at the box office but Saif Ali Khan has no time to look back. The actor is all geared up for his upcoming project `Agent Vinod`, which he says is an "ambitious and larger-than-life". The film, his second home production after `Love Aaj Kal`, will see him pairing opposite real-life love Kareena Kapoor once again.

"The film belongs to a genre from the 1970s. Its shooting is in Europe, Delhi, Morocco and the pre-climax in Pakistan," said Saif, who was in the city alongwith actress Chitrangada Singh. Dressed in a black coat and blue denims, Saif looked relaxed and the actor, who became one of the youngest Padma Sree winners, reveals that he has slowed down pace of his life. "I took a good break for sometime. Right now, I am excited about life because my life is in my control. Yes, everything is happening for me, good films, an award and ads," said Saif, who intends to do a romantic comedy in near future. On the controversies which tend to surround him, be it the Padma Shri bestowed on him this year or his irritable bouts with the media, the 39-year-old actor says, "whenever the government gives any award to me, there is a controversy.." "I started when I was 19, now I am 39 and over the years, I have mellowed down and have stopped reacting to news. "I am mature enough to handle things". Chitrangada, wife of ace golfer Jyoti Randhawa, will be seen in Sudhir Mishra`s `Dil Darbadar`, for which she has taken guitar lessons as the role demanded. PTI
