Sara Ali Khan, who grew up with her mother and veteran actor Amrita Singh is grateful for the upbringing she’s had, one that was beyond films and stardom. As she celebrates her birthday on August 12, we revisit her episode on Mid-day’s Sit With Hitlist, where she shared how the paparazzi would hound her even before her first film. She also revealed that despite studying at the prestigious Dhirubhai Ambani school she wasn’t treated differently.
Sara said, “I`m trying not to sound wrong, but I`m trying to be honest also, the more grateful I am for the upbringing that I`ve had. The more years I`m spending here, the more I`m realizing how easy it would have been for my mom to have brought me up differently and how grateful and thankful I am that she didn`t. We didn`t grow up thinking that paparazzi is our birthright.”
