Saif Ali Khan's son, Ibrahim Ali Khan has already become quite the celebrity himself. And the buzz is that apparently, Ibrahim too wants to be part of the film fraternity, much like his dad. It's only fitting, right? Well, in a recent interview with a leading daily, Saif Ali Khan opened up about his son having Bollywood dreams and even mentioned Akshay Kumar's son Aarav.

Saif quipped, "Yes. Ibrahim, Aarav and that group of youngsters want six packs and aspire to be Bollywood stars. I don’t know if anyone wants to be an actor. It is kind of disturbing because not everyone makes it." He was even quick to add that he too wanted to be a 'star'. He continued, "But then what the heck? Talking of being a star, my wife points out that till a few years ago, even I didn't want to be an actor, I wanted to be a star."

Earlier, in an interview, Saif even opened up about how Ibrahim already thinks he's a star. The doting father said, “Ibrahim thinks he is an actor before Sara because he did 'Tashan'. And he was upset when it didn't work (laughs). But he is a good looking guy. All our friends' children in our peer group want to be actors because they see it as an attractive profession with respect, money, affluence and a certain amount of privilege. But how many of them are interested in acting, I don't know. Sara has a degree from the London School Of Economics and still want to be an actor over a banker so obviously, there is something very attractive about this lifestyle."

Well, we can't wait to spot Ibrahim on the big screen!
