“I’m very privileged and deeply grateful to have had such diverse experiences,” she continues. Under the direction of my directors, I aspire to continue learning, growing, and delighting my audiences.”

Khan, known as a director’s actor, has worked with and aspires to work with a variety of filmmakers. On several instances, the directors have lauded the actor. Her debut film director, Abhishek Kapoor, recently disclosed her dedication at work and how the wide-eyed newbie was eager to learn on the set of her maiden film.

On the professional front, Sara will be next seen as a freedom fighter from the 1940s in Kanna Iyer’s Aye Watan Mere Watan. She also has Anurag Basu’s Metro… Inn Dino, and Homi Adajania’s Murder Mubarak.
