Saif Ali Khan has got a gift.

He can look suave in almost anything - even with his unshaven, disheveled look and a rocker t-shirt.

"I am all geared for the release of Tashan," says Khan, looking relaxed and upbeat.

One of the most eagerly awaited movies of 2008, Tashan has aroused curiosity through the tight-lipped promotional strategy from the production house of Yash-Raj.

The movie marks a departure for the production house, who typically unleash their lavish promos and red-hot music months in advance of the film's Friday opening.
 
Guitar-playing-rocker Khan compares the banner's silence to one of his favourite bands.

"The marketing of Tashan is similar to the way Led Zeppelin released their fourth album without any publicity at all, which then went on to become their biggest hit," Saif assures.

The audiences have rejected Yash Raj Films' recent releases - Aaja Nachle, Laaga Chunari Mein Daag and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. Does this fact worry him?

Khan states, "YRF are a class act and a tight unit. Besides, in this industry, people love to see the top dog having a bad day." 

The actor is positive without scrupples about his latest release.

"Tashan is something I'm looking forward to. It's a full on commercial entertainer, and a real roller-coaster ride which will appeal to everyone."
