Sara Ali Khan shares a very special bond with her father, Saif Ali Khan. Not only does she look upto him, but she also followed his footsteps and entered Bollywood. On the occasion of Father’s Day, Sara shared a couple of throwback photos to wish her dad.
The first photo featured baby Sara and Saif holding his son, Ibrahim Ali Khan. In the second photo, slightly grown Sara and Ibrahim can be seen in ski gear while hugging their father. “Happy Father’s Day Abba,” Sara captioned her post with chick emojis.
Sara’s aunt, Soha Ali Khan also took to her Instagram and wished her late father Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi on Father’s Day. Soha shared throwback photos with her dad and wrote, “You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure #happyfathersday Abba @sabapataudi.”
Soha and Saif’s elder sister, Saba Pataudi also shared an unseen photo from her birthday party to wish her father. The photo featured baby Soha, her parents, Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. “My HERO. My FATHER Protected and loved. He ALWAYS had my back. Happy father's Day ….Abba,” Saba captioned her post.
Meanwhile, during a recent interaction, Sara was asked about the speculations regarding Saif being unhappy with her for choosing 'Kedarnath' as her debut release.
Responding to the rumours, Sara told india.com, “My father knows better than to make statements about what I should do best because he himself as my father has encouraged me to make my own decisions. He is also an actor so he understands better than most people that ultimately you cannot be a part of any film that you don’t feel convinced about and therefore, it’s very important for you to trust your own gut.”
The 'Simmba' actor added, "Long story short, I don’t think he ever had a problem with anything that I did as long as my heart and soul were in it. And no matter what he may or may not have thought, after the fate of 'Kedarnath' and after the love and appreciation I got – zahir si baat hai that I knew what I was doing and I am very proud of what I choose and what I did.”
Sara was last seen in the ‘Coolie No 1’ remake, co-starring Varun Dhawan and her next project is Akshay Kumar and Dhanush starrer ‘Atrangi Re’.
