Like father like son. The adage, though clichéd, is apt for Saif Ali Khan ’s son Ebrahim who is making his acting debut.

Yes, the eight-year-old adolescent has a small but important role in Yashraj Films presentation Tashan , which is being directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya.

Ebrahim apparently had no difficulty in getting into the skin of his character because he plays Saif’s son in the film.

Both Saif and his ex-wife Amrita Singh were present on the sets when Ebrahim shot his portions. The doting papa and mommy gave some easy tips to Ebrahim before he faced the camera.

A source from the movie’s unit says Ebrahim has truly inherited acting genes from his talented parents. The little boy was very comfortable before the camera and soon became a darling of everyone on the sets.

Apart from Saif, ‘Tashan’ stars Kareena Kapoor , Akshay Kumar and Anil Kapoor .
