On Thursday, as we are struggling to sit straight on our seats at work (blame the dreamy weather and an overcast sky), we chanced upon a throwback photo of Saif Ali Khan on Twitter. In the photo, Saif can be seen chilling on a sofa with filmmaker Kunal Kohli, who directed him in 2004's Hum Tum. Yash Raj Films, who produced the movie, dug out this piece of blast from the past as a Throwback Thursday treat and said: "Such swag!" In the photo, Saif paints the picture of a perfect lazy day - he's plonked on the couch with a cuppa by his side and sports the typical nawab combination of kurta-pyjama.
We would just like to add one more point, Rani Mukerji is really being missed in this throwback memory from what appears to be Hum Tum days:

Saif Ali Khan co-starred with Rani Mukerji in Hum Tum, which was loosely based on Hollywood's classic rom-com When Harry Met Sally.... While Hum Tum opened to mixed reviews, it went on to win several awards. It fetched the Best Actor National Award for Saif Ali Khan - his first National Award. Hum Tum was also a big winner at the Filmfare and IIFA awards in 2005 fetching Best Actress prizes for Rani Mukerji and Best Director for Kunal Kohli.
Saif Ali Khan recently made his web-series debut with Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane's Sacred Games, which has earned a lot of love from netizens. Saif Ali Khan stars as a stubborn but righteous cop in the series, headlined by Nawazuddin Siddiqui. In Bollywood, he was last seen in Kaalakaandi and is currently awaiting the release of Bazaar.
