Ibrahim Ali Khan on Ranbir Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan

Ibrahim Ali Khan, the rising star and son of Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan, is making headlines not just for his debut but also for his refreshing take on stardom in the social media age. In a recent interview with Filmfare, Ibrahim opened about how he views fame today compared to earlier generations—and who he draws inspiration from when it comes to staying low-key.

“Earlier there was no social media. You wouldn’t see stars in public. There was limited exposure to Hollywood. The audience would go to the theatres and they would die to see all these stars. I want to be like that.”

Ibrahim further elaborated on the type of public presence he aspires to emulate.
“I enjoy being out there as well. But I want to be like Ranbir Kapoor. He’s not on social media. He’s kind of low-key. Saif Ali Khan, my beloved father... he’s also like that. He’s by himself at home. He’s a super cool guy doing his work, not on social media. These guys aren’t out there, no one can get to them. And that’s what makes them so desirable. We want to reach them, but we can’t.”

Reflecting on the challenges young celebrities face today, he adds,
“Now, I can’t even leave the gym in peace. I’m getting clicked leaving the gym. You get photographed everywhere. They all know us exactly for who we are, how we are. And that is one more reason as to why we have it harder than earlier stars.”

As he prepares to step into the limelight, Ibrahim seems determined to navigate fame on his own terms—taking cues from stars who let their work speak louder than their online presence.
