It's confirmed!

Ibrahim Ali Khan will join his sister Sara in show business as soon as he finishes his education in London.

"Saif left Ibrahim's career choice to his son just as he left it to Sara," a source close to Saif's parivar tells Subhash K Jha.

"Saif wasn't happy when Sara chose to become a Bollywood actor after studying at Columbia university. But Sara's mother (actress Amrita Singh) supported Sara in her career plans. Saif had no choice, but to give in."

 

Ibrahim has made it clear to his parents that he wants to become an actor. Unlike his elder sister, Ibrahim is not adamant on making it on his own.

"Saif may produce a film for Ibrahim. Unlike Sara, who was always a full-on masala heroine, Ibrahim needs special nurturing and grooming to face the camera. He is shy and needs to trust the camera," says the source.

Some time ago, Sara had said this about her brother's career choice: "Ibrahim wants to be an actor. But as I have discovered, it's an easy dream to have, but very difficult to achieve. I feel Ibrahim has the talent. Once he enacted a monologue for my mother and me -- I was holding the sheet of paper on which his lines were written. But I couldn't look at the sheet; I was busy looking at his eyes. They were so emotive."
