Looks like Saif Ali Khan is part of another controversy, except this one isn’t about his personal life, rather  it has to do with his look in the up coming film, ‘Love Aaj Kal.’  It seems Saif’s first home production has run into some controversy regarding the look of his character Veer Singh who is a Sikh. 

The Punjab Cultural and Heritage Board has apparently sent a note to Saif, his production partner Dinesh Vijan, and director Imtiaz Ali over their protest against what they are calling Saif’s ‘trimmed’ beard.  So what’s the fuss about?  Well the president of the board says Sikhs don’t trim their beards and thus Saif’s character doesn’t represent a true Sikh man.  However, Saif and director Imtiaz have met with the board and assured them that the Sikh character has been represented well in the film.  They also have made arrangements for a special screening for the board before the film releases on July 31st. 

If you recall an earlier controversy of the same nature, Akshay Kumar and director Vipual Shah ran into a similar problem when ‘Singh is Kinng’ was ready for release, as Akshay also had a trimmed beard in the film.

So what do you guys think about all the fuss over Saif Ali Khan’s trimmed beard in the film?  Is it much to do about nothing, or is the Punjab Cultural and Heritage Board justified in their anger?  Drop us a comment with your thoughts!
