Ina span of two years, Sara Ali Khan has seen the highs of glamour and has alsogarnered a substantial fan base. The daughter of Bollywood stars Saif Ali Khanand Amrita Singh may have been born in the lap of fame, but she insists shedoes not believe in stardom.
"Idon't look at stardom. Till now, I don't use the word fans. I don't use theword star. I don't believe in these things. I think Friday to Friday -- I meanit used to be Friday and it can now be released any day. With every release ofa film your stature, stardom -- whatever you call it -- keeps changing,"Sara said.
"Ithink the only thing that matters is your 'neeyat' (intention). Aapki jo'neeyat' hoti hai woh matter karta hai aur kahin na kahin jo aapki shiddat,passion aur junoon hota hai woh matter karta hai (what matters is yourintention, hard work, passion and craze). Everything else keeps changing andwill continue to change," she added.
Saraentered Bollywood in 2018 with Abhishek Kapoor's "Kedarnath",co-starring late Sushant Singh Rajput. She was then seen in Rohit Shetty's"Simmba" opposite Ranveer Singh, the Kartik Aaryan co-starrer"Love Aajkal 2" by Imtiaz Ali, and, her latest release, DavidDhawan's "Coolie No. 1" opposite Varun Dhawan.
Comingfrom a family of stars and having worked with that sort of a line-up of bigco-stars and co-actors, Sara says she is lucky. While friends lament theirnine-to-five jobs, for Sara acting is no work.
"Iam lucky to be in a profession I like. I see a couple of people -- friends ofmine -- do nine-to-five jobs they don't like, and are like, "oh god!work'. But this is not work. My work is the most exciting part of my life. I amlucky to have that, rest is all irrelevant," Sara, who is thegranddaughter of veteran actress Sharmila Tagore and former skipper Mansoor AliKhan Pataudi, said.
Theactress has an equally important film lined up for her in future. She will nextbe seen with Akshay Kumar and Dhanush in Aanand L. Rai's "AtrangiRe".
