Saif Ali Khan says there was a time when music acted as a catalyst in making a film successful, but the actor is unsure if the formula still works. 
 
The 47-year-old actor, who had musical hits in films such as Hum Tum, Salaam Namaste&nbsp;and Cocktail, said experimental phase Bollywood is going through has somewhat diluted the significance of song-and-dance routine. 
 
&quot;The films would even get big opening if the songs were a hit. As we have grown or changed, there are less and less songs. I don&#39;t know if it is a good thing (or not). 
 
&quot;In the outskirts of India and rural areas, and in cabs, people listen to Hindi music a lot. I think part of hero&#39;s charm is to sing songs. I don&#39;t know if we have lost that culture (or not),&quot; Saif said. 
 
The actor was speaking at the launch of Swagpur Ka Chaudhary&nbsp;song from his upcoming film Kaalakaandi.

&quot;It is a great song. When we do a film, we need music to promote it and make it more interesting,&quot; he added. 
 
This year Saif was seen in two films - Rangoon&nbsp;and Chef. The movies, hoverer, did not do as good as expected at the box office. 
 
Talking about the year gone-by, the actor said, &quot;It wasn&#39;t particularly great professionally. But it was a very interesting experience. I learnt a lot about acting and worked with lot of wonderful people, who taught me new things. 
 
&quot;I am a changed actor to what I was when I was doing Phantom... I have managed to keep abreast and move with the current style and it is the greatest thing I could have achieved,&quot; he said. 
 
Saif added his agenda for 2018 is to keep moving ahead and the actor hopes Kaalakaandi&nbsp;impresses the audiences. 
 
Directed by Akshat Verma, the movie releases on January 12.&nbsp;
