The first look of Saif Ali Khan from his upcoming film Kaalakaandi is out and it's terrifying. The actor looks no less than a sinister dressed in a yellow feathered crop jacket with pig-tails on his head and blackened eyes.
Directed by debutant Akshat Verma, writer of the dark comedy film Delhi Belly, Kaalakandi is the story of six characters from different worlds - urban, ambitious Mumbai and its dark, neglected underbelly. It's a raucous, dark-comedy tale about life, death, karma, that barrels through one monsoon night in Mumbai.

In an earlier interview, Saif had said, "Kaalakaandi is a film I'm so happy to be a part of. It's a cross-section of Mumbai with underworld goons, doomed bankers, and idealistic lovers all mixed together in this karmic tale about love, crime and living a lifetime in one night."
According to a source in the know of developments, the script was written specifically with Saif in mind and it took over two years before the script finally got to the actor.
"Akshat has written and directed this unique movie and he is probably the only voice who tells it exactly like it actually is. Mumbai is a crazy, beautiful city and he has captured it perfectly in this very fun and very moving film."
Kaalakaandi, produced by Cinestaan Film Company, also features Deepak Dobriyal, Vijay Raz, Kunal Roy Kapoor, Sobhita Dhulipala, Akshay Oberoi, Isha Talwar, Shenaz Treasury, Shivam Patil, Amyra Dastur and Neil Bhoopalam. The film will release on September 8.
