He also reflected on the pressure of living up to his family\u2019s legacy in Bollywood.Ibrahim reflects on his debut and early strugglesIn conversation with Esquire India, Ibrahim said, &#8220;I am not saying I took my chance for granted, but I stepped into the industry like, \u2018Ho jaayega\u2019. Of course, I was working very hard\u2014like I\u2019m still working hard on my speech issue. But in a way, I feel I must have rushed into that movie. I was 21 when I began shooting for it\u2014others around me are doing it at 26, 27, 28\u2014and I now think I could have been more mindful of the scale of what was going to happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ibrahim Ali Khan Stuns in All-Black Suit at ELLE Event<\/p>\n<p>On dealing with self-doubt and family expectationsElaborating further, he added, &#8220;I usually always have self-doubt.

You should be able to do it. You should be smashing it, man.&#8221;KJo\u2019s reaction to Ibrahim\u2019s commentsMeanwhile, Khan, who made his film debut under Johar\u2019s banner, raised eyebrows with his recent interview when he described the film as &#8220;really bad.&#8221; This reaction came as a stark contrast to the actor&#8217;s previous comments, defending the movie. According to a report Deccan Chronicle, Ibrahim\u2019s remarks also took Johar and his close circle by surprise.The report quotes a source close to the filmmaker who claimed that the filmmaker is no stranger to &#8220;ingratitude&#8221; from his young talents. &#8220;He had promised to launch Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh\u2019s son, and he kept his word.&#8221; The report goes on to state that KJo even lent his support to Ibrahim&#8217;s second film &#8216;Sarzameen&#8217;, despite being advised against it. Interestingly, the film, which had a digital release, also failed to create as much buzz online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ibrahim Ali Khan candidly discussed his debut film Nadaaniyan&#8217;s failure and the pressure of his family&#8217;s Bollywood legacy.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":101813,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[67570,430,156,39330,67733,16110,3066,20280,67568,74342,111,139,69,14080,67569],"class_list":["post-101812","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-amrita-singh","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-ibrahim-ali-khan","tag-ibrahim-ali-khan-nadaaniyan","tag-kajol","tag-karan-johar","tag-kareena-kapoor","tag-nadaaniyan","tag-nadaaniyan-debut","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-saif-ali-khan","tag-sarzameen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101812","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101812"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101812\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/101813"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101812"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101812"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101812"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
