Okay, the title sounds schoolgirlish, but I am a girl, what can I say? This guy just does it for me.
Ironically, I hated Saif in the first movie I saw him in (KHNH) (I was only introduced to BW in 2003), but it wasn't that I hated his acting. It was because his character, Rohit was in the way of sweethearts, SRK and Preity. It's my favourite movie, ok. Sometimes I get caught up in the storyline. Any BW fan that says they never confuse reality with fantasy, especially girls, are lying!
Anyway, when I saw him in Hum Tum, he kind of grew on me and I liked his performance so much that I was ecstatic to see him in Darna Mana Hai. For a guest role, he was very good, but it was in Parineeta that I really admired as an actor. Saif was increasingly winning with me, but I still didn't see him as I saw SRK - good actor with sex appeal and charisma.
It took Salaam Namaste for me to see Saif as sexy, which he is. I liken him to a Bollywood version of John Cusack - not exactly good looking (in the traditional sense, but makes up for it with wit and quirky charm.
I hope to see more of him in future!
