But it wasn't just the serious and intense roles that Sara excelled in. She also brought a breath of fresh air to light-hearted characters.

Sara Ali Khan talked about why these characters personally appeal to her in the trailer launch event of ‘Zara Hatke Zara Bachke’. "The truth is that I really relate to the pulse of my country very strongly. I have always grown up thinking of myself as an Indian desi girl from Juhu that lives with her mother and doesn't really have frills or fancies or is filmy and doesn't even have friends to be honest. So, I has always grown up not just only knowing but also being very proud of my Indianness. But I think that's a very personal thing."
