Sara Ali Khan is not only a good actor but she also comes across as a woman of substance who knows her mind as well as doesn’t take herself so seriously that she can’t laugh at herself. She has been pretty vocal about being overweight and weighing a whopping 96 kgs before she made her acting debut in Kedarnath. Only recently she had uploaded a throwback video of hers with all her chubbiness in full glory. She has also gone on record to say that she shares a great relationship with Kareena Kapoor Khan who is married to her father Saif Ali Khan.
The rising star appeared on Kareena’s radio show What Women Want 2 on Ishq 104.8 FM and gave a refreshing take on her journey of losing weight. During the show Kareena revealed that she misses the younger, but heavier version of Sara who was a much more interesting person. She claimed that the fitter Sara of today has become very boring as she doesn’t eat pizzas anymore. To this Sara had a fitting reply and said, “I can now earn enough money to buy the pizza. I do think that people now look at me in a very different way. They don’t look at me as a nazarbattu (an object used to ward off the evil eye) anymore. I think that is a refreshing change.”
Well, that’s saying something, isn’t it? When she was further quizzed if the male attention has changed post all the weight loss, Sara said, “As a person, I have never really derived my confidence from the way I look. I don't think that is the first five things that come to your mind when you talk to me anyway. I don't think that's ever been it. Maybe more boys like my photos than they would if I was that fat.”
