In a world of digitisation, and social media, when celebs use it as an important medium to connect with their fans and enhance their stardom, Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan chooses to differ. The actor hasn’t been on social media officially and in a new interview, shared that his decision was “an instinctive reaction” to keep away from “the idea of presenting a certain image online or to share stuff”. However, Khan admits that he does use Instagram and has a secret account.
Saif Ali Khan in an interview with Hindustan Times, revealed, “I do have the Instagram app, and a secret account, too. I browse sometimes, but don’t enjoy it much. And every time I browse it for a little while, I keep promising to delete it and I end up not deleting it.”
In the same interview, Saif also shared that since he’s not offically on the medium, no brands or anyone for that matter asks him to post things online and loves that freedom.
“I don’t want to get stuck in a position where I have to post other people’s things. I really enjoy the fact that nobody is really interested in asking me to promote something because they know that I’m not on social media. So, I get a lot of peace and quiet,” shared Saif, husband of actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, who is extremely active on social media and enjoys a massive fan following.
On a closing note, Saif added, “I’m sure you can do really well out of it if you’re interested. I don’t think I would be such an interesting person for me to post things. But some people are, and they have so many followers. I think it’s great in that way. I think it’s an amazing medium. It’s quite fun and entertaining. There are hundreds of interesting things out there to consume and sometimes if you want something quick and fun to look at, it’s good that it’s there. So, if you enjoy being on it and if you enjoy following people on it; we should all just do what we enjoy doing.”
