Flushed with the success of Cocktail, Saif Ali Khan, the producer-actor of the film announced in an interview that he had signed Hollywood beauty and Oscar Award winning actress Natalie Portman for his upcoming project. He even went on to mention the film’s details saying it would be a rom com.
When the news traveled to California at Natalie Portman’s abode, she got hugely annoyed and threatened to sue Saif Ali Khan. She talked with her attorneys (as per reports) to take legal action against the Bollywood star who, she said, is making false statements whereas he has neither approached her nor signed her for any movie.
As soon as Saif heard this, he instantly came to the media to tell that it was just a joke. He even said he had started making stories to entertain himself (which was why he cracked this joke!).
