Sara Ali Khan Used To Think Her Parents Were ‘Negative People’ And The Reason Is ‘Award Winning’!

Sara Ali Khan Used To Think Her Parents Were ‘Negative People’ And The Reason Is ‘Award Winning’!

I remember when I was young I had this particular image of my parents in my head. I think that’s always the case though, don’t you? When we’re younger we tend to idolise our parents and hold every little thing against them, making it a permanent part of how we perceive them. I think it was around 16 when I first got disillusioned and started seeing my parents as humans with their own baggage to take care of. I guess that is the cycle of life, the older we grow, the more we tend to relate to our parents. Sara Ali Khan seems to agree as she talks about how she used to perceive parents Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh as “negative people.”

In a recent interview, Sara Ali Khan spoke about how she used to think that her parents are negative people when she was growing up. After watching Saif Ali Khan in Omkara and Amrita Singh in Kalyug, she believed that her father “used bad language” and her mom “ran a porn site”. Saif played the role of Langda Tyagi in Omkara which is a rendition of Shakespeare’s Othello by Vishal Bhardwaj. He co-starred alongside Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Konkona Sen Sharma, and Vivek Oberoi. Kalyug is a movie by Mohit Suri with Kunal Khemu as the lead. It also had Emraan Hashmi, Smilie Suri, and Ashutosh Rana working alongside Amrita Singh.

Sara Ali Khan said in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar India, “All I remember is watching Omkara and Kalyug and being really disturbed that my parents were such negative people! I was very young and I used to think that my father uses bad language and that my mom runs a porn site…it was not fun! And because they were both nominated for ‘best actor in a negative role’ in the same year, I was, like, ‘What is this!?’.” She also opens up regarding her relationship with her mother, Amrita Rao saying she has always been a mama’s girl, and she’s getting better at compartmentalising her emotions and not tranferring her emotions to her mother if she has had a bad day at work.

Sara’s interview made me reminisce about when I was younger and used to take everything my parents did or said way too seriously. I think with the passage of time we all tend to look at life differently; practically rather than idealistically. I guess that’s when we start understanding our parents better.
