Sara Ali Khan, the vivacious young actress who emerged into the spotlight in 2018 with her debut film “Kedarnath,” has since been on a personal and professional journey that reflects her distinguished lineage and progressive outlook. Born to celebrated Bollywood stars Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh, Sara carries the weight of a cinematic legacy that she hopes to honor. Yet, her aspirations extend beyond the world of acting as she emerges as a voice for crucial social issues.
In a candid discussion, Sara expressed her deep admiration for her father, Saif Ali Khan, a stalwart in the Bollywood industry. Despite not having watched his latest film, “Devara: Part 1,” she conveyed her unwavering confidence in his performance. “I love my father, and I’m sure he has done a fantastic job. I really admire him and his work so much. I hope that one day I can be half the actor my parents are,” she shared, her eyes gleaming with hope and respect. Her dream to emulate her parents’ success in the film industry is a testament to her passion and dedication to the craft.
Apart from acting, Sara serves as an ambassador for women’s health issues, using her platform to break societal taboos. As a representative of Sofy sanitary pads, she is determined to dismantle the stigma surrounding menstruation. “As a woman, I feel I should provide comfort to other women as much as possible. Periods have long been a taboo—like hiding pads or avoiding discussions about menstruation, often insisting on handing over pads wrapped in black covers,” she noted passionately.
For Sara, the conversation about periods is only the beginning. She believes discussions about mental health and physical hygiene should be normalized. “It is an important step to discuss these topics openly.
. We should live life on and off our period the same way, and brands that drive innovation can empower women by enabling this level of openness,” she stated, advocating for a society where women’s and girls’ issues are met with understanding and openness, not secrecy and shame.
Sara’s advocacy is deeply personal as well. The actress has been openly candid about her struggles with PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) and obesity. At 29 years old, she recognizes the importance of normalizing conversations about health issues that many women face silently. “I see a lot of women walk up to me and say, ‘Thank you for talking about weight, stress, PCOD.’ I think these things are so normal, and yet I just don’t understand why not more people talk about them,” she remarked, highlighting the power of shared experiences and empathy.
Sara emphasizes the immediate relief people feel when they realize they are not alone in their struggles. “If I could make anyone feel ‘understood,’ if I could help someone realize ‘Hey, it’s my problem too,’ which makes them feel better, then why not do it?” she added thoughtfully.
As she continues her journey in the film industry, Sara is set to share the screen with acclaimed actor Ayushmann Khurrana in her next project. Her professional commitments, coupled with her personal advocacy, make her a notable figure not just in Bollywood but also in areas concerning essential social issues.
In her pursuit of acting excellence and social advocacy, Sara Ali Khan embodies a new-age celebrity who champions both cinematic artistry and humanitarian causes. Her journey is one of growth, self-discovery, and commitment to using her influence for positive change.
