Sara Ali Khan made her big Bollywood debut in 2018, with Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath. She was seen alongside the late Sushant Singh Rajput, and left a good impression with her debut performance.
Since then, Sara has made a genuine connect with the audience with her girl-next-door vibe and always being her authentic self.
In a conversation with NDTV Yuva, Sara addressed a slew of things—from being judged for being a public figure, the importance of being authentic, being an advocate of mental health, and how her family waded past through the horrific attack on Saif Ali Khan at his residence, during a burglary attempt in January.
Sara On Being Authentic Vs Filtered On Social Media
Most often, stars are accused of not being their authentic self on social media. But Sara Ali Khan begs to differ.
The actress mentions that wanting a Chanel bag only shows that she is aspirational. But that is just one part of her. Being rooted and authentic is equally important to her.
She mentions that she does not believe she is a filtered person at all, however, she must practice that caution.
The actress says, “I don’t believe in being filtered as a person. There is a difference between being filtered and being unaware. Especially now, you conclude not based on evidence. It is important to watch what you say. I am trying to improve there. I tend to speak from the heart.”
She further adds, “I try to be honest to people who follow me. I try to showcase what I am, be it humour, be it travelling. But that is not all that I am. Instagram is a partial reality. That is what is concluded incorrectly.”
