To this, Ram Kam reacted and told news ncy ANI, "Saif Ali Khan is a good actor, but I think he has studied history only from point when Britishers came to India. If he would have studied ancient history he would have kwn that India's trition is 1000 years old. If he would have studied our Vedas and Puranas and all Yugas from Satya Yuga to Kalyuga, n he would have kwn that entire world heaped praises for India's culture. Inste Saif is heaping praises of Britishers and in indirect ways, he is degring India. I request him to study history before debating on this topic."
