Ibrahim’s character in Sarzameen

“Sarzameen is an emotional milestone I’ll carry forever. It challenged me in ways I never imagined, not just as an actor, but as a person too. My character is torn between love, loyalty, and truth, and navigating that emotional spectrum was the most intense learning curve,” Ibrahim shared excitement about being a part of the highly anticipated drama.

Speaking about his experience of sharing the screen with Kajol and Prithviraj, Ibrahim added, "It was a treasure trove to see Kajol Ma’am and Prithviraj Sir in action, they are so gracious and effortless in their art, and this pushed me to put my best foot forward. Kayoze too pushed me in all the right ways, he demanded depth, stillness, and vulnerability. I have put my heart and soul into Sarzameen and I hope the audiences enjoy watching the film. Stories like Sarzameen deserve to be seen and felt by everyone, everywhere.”

Directed by the first-time director Kayoze Irani, Sarzameen is expected to be out on JioHotstar on July 25th.

Ibrahim Ali Khan on the work front

Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim made his debut with Nadaaniyan opposite Khushi Kapoor; however, the film didn't impress the audience. It sparked a nepotism debate and became the subject of trolling for the cast's average acting.
