When a four-year-old, Sara Ali Khan had dreamt of being the part of the filmy world like her parents, Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh, no one had believed her. With the passage of time, from being a drama queen, Sara, to being the studious Sara, the little girl had shifted her focus to studies and worked hard into her academics and had gotten selected in New York's Columbia University. But her dream of becoming an actress was still alive in her heart and it became reality with her debut film, Kedarnath.

For those who don't know, Sara is a product of a broken home yet her parents had tried hard to not let their personal issues became a problem for their kids. Saif and Amrita had parted ways after 13-years of marriage with ugly divorce accusations in the media. However, the divorce of her parents had made Sara even stronger and gave her the power to acknowledge her own reality. And while she lives with her mother, she shares a beautiful bond with her father and his family.
Sara often shares snippets of her life on her Instagram handle. She keeps on sharing her childhood pictures and on June 4, 2020, Sara posted another throwback picture that reminded us of her cousin, Inaaya (daughter of her bua, Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Kemmu). In the picture, we can see Sara posing for the camera in a white t-shirt with two pigtail braids. Alongside it, she wrote,"#throwbackthursday". Check it out below:
In an interview with the Femina magazine, Sara had talked about being her father's little girl. She had said, "I have always been daddy’s little girl. He tells me that the first time I touched rain and saw snow was with him. He has had a huge influence on me, and we have gotten closer with time. We bonded a lot during my college years as we are both inclined towards academics. Now, I am in the same profession as him, and that’s another factor that has brought us closer."

We remember in a 2017 interview with the Mid-Day, Saif had shared his concern for his princess. He had stated, "What worries me is the kind of relationships she is going to have. Or for that matter, how she will deal with failure - will she get upset and cry about them? These are things that niggle at me." He had further added, "I'm happy Sara is doing something she is passionate about. The only thing I have told her is to stay true to her job as an artiste. But Kareena [Kapoor Khan] pointed out that I started taking interest in my work only recently and found my way. I hope she too finds her way."
