Saif Ali Khan has overcome the initial hiccups in his career to become one of the bankable stars in Bollywood and the actor believes he is finally in a happy space professionally.
Having started his career with 1992 film 'Parampara', Saif went on to star in many forgettable films in the '90s but his career took a new course after the success of Farhan Akhtar directed 'Dil Chahta Hai' in 2001.
The 42-year-old actor followed it up with critically acclaimed performances in 'Ek Hasina Thi', 'Hum Tum', 'Omkara' and 'Being Cyrus'.
Saif, who also runs a production house Illuminati Films and married Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor in October last year, says he does not feel lost anymore in Bollywood.
"I feel more assured and confident about my ability. I think I can deliver what I am generally being asked to do. I feel I am one of the better actors in Bombay but I am humble about it. I am not arrogant. I am learning and I have a long way to go but I don't feel lost anymore," Saif told PTI in an interview.
Saif believes that he has managed to create an image of being a versatile actor over the years.

"I hope I have managed to create an idea of being versatile enough to keep myself occupied and keep it interesting for the audiences," he adds.
The actor's romance with Kareena Kapoor kept the gossip columns busy for years but now that they are married Saif says he is relieved to finally concentrate on his work.
Remind him that the focus on his personal life has lessened now that they are married and pat comes the reply, "Thank God."
"I think that was bound to happen. I feel relieved about that. Now, we all can get on with work. A person should be known for their work and not for their personal life. But people do have a lot of interest in actors and I don't blame them," says Saif.
He will next be seen playing a zombie-killer in 'Go Goa Gone' which is releasing this Friday. The film is directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK with whom Saif is doing another movie.
