Akshay showed Saif an old interview clip that had recently become popular online.
In the clip, Saif talks about liking poets Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Mirza Ghalib, then calls what he said rubbish.

She also said Akshay is always ready on set and helped her get another chance during an action scene.
She described both actors as supportive colleagues.
Saiyami Kher praised Haiwaan co-stars Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan as secure actors who handle their stardom lightly.
