Even though Sara Ali Khan comes from a family of Bollywood mavens, she never goes to her father Saif Ali Khan for career advice. The actress does discuss other issues with her dad, but not too much in detail when it comes to her movies.
“Saif has told Sara that she should not think too much into a script, and just say yes if she likes it at the first go. He has told her that overthinking and reading too far between the lines would result in a messy situation.
He has told her once that she should do a film when she was offered it without hearing much of the story, but barring that, he never gets into detail. Saif feels that an actor should own up to the films he or she signs, and should take unilateral responsibility for its failure as well,” says a source.
Sara’s mother Amrita Singh often guides her in choosing films, as she helps her understand the nuances the young actress should know.
