Sara Ali Khan likes to be normal girl
She made an impact with her debut film Kedarnath and her second release Simmba is also a hit But actress Sara Ali Khan, who has fan clubs all across India doting on her, says she neither has the time to feel like a star not does she think she will let herself feel like one in future
She made an impact with her debut film ‘Kedarnath’ and her second release ‘Simmba’ is also a hit. But actress Sara Ali Khan, who has fan clubs all across India doting on her, says she neither has the time to feel like a "star" not does she think she will let herself feel like one in future.
Excerpts from the interview:
Congrats Sara, you seem to have become quite a star?
Arre kahaan? I am just running around trying to cope with the workload. I don't have time to feel like a star. I don't think I'm a star yet. But I hope I get there some day. I don't think I will ever let myself feel like a star. The minute you do, others will stop seeing you in a favourable light.
Your gorgeous grandmother Sharmila Tagore says you have immense poise for someone so young. Where does this self-confidence come from?
I guess it comes from being honest. And that's the only way I can be. Let those who can lie convincingly do it. I can't! I start fumbling the minute I lie. Staying true to myself suits me just fine.
What kind of reactions are you getting from your family and the media?
The family cannot be expected to be objective. They are expected to be nice to me in whatever I do. After all I am their daughter. But the way the reviewers, critics and audience have reacted to me, is overwhelming. This is a moment I am not going to forget ever in my life.
Do you deserve all the love you are getting?
80 per cent of it, I deserve. The other 20 per cent I don't know where it is coming from. And it's making me feel very grateful and emotional. I don't have any experience in acting. All I had was my honesty. And that was my only go-to.
‘Kedarnath’ was my first experience in what happens before the camera. Of course, I had been on film sets before to see my mother (Amrita Singh) shoot in 'Kalyug' and my father (Saif Ali Khan) in 'Omkara'. But all I did was play around with my parents' co-stars' make-up. ‘Kedarnath’ was my first opportunity to observe filmmaking and be part of the process. My only tool of working on the sets was my honesty. Of course, I always wanted to be an actor.
