"He should. He is looking good, better than I am! He is a charming guy. I definitely think all of my children would be interested in acting. We are an acting family -- the whole bunch of us are in the industry. He's still young and I'm keener that he does university first. Then, of course, we'll support him in whatever he wants to do," Saif said in a throwback interview.
Interestingly, in an earlier interview, Sara too had said that acting is a while away for Ibrahim as he is going to pursue film study in Los Angeles. The latest buzz, however, suggests a change in plan as Ibrahim seems to have decided to learn aspects of filmmaking first hand than studying in some prestigious university abroad.
