Happy Birthday, Sara Ali Khan | Sara Ali Khan is raw, real and relatable. Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh’s daughter celebrates her 24th birthday today, 12th August. The actress made a splash with her debut in Kedarnath and followed up the success with a masala blockbuster Simmba. She was pretty much the talk of the town with her on and off-screen finesse creating ripples everywhere she went – small screen, silver screen, airport, cafe, gym, etc. Be it speaking her heart in interviews or coming across as a sweetheart at events, Sara is perhaps the most relatable celebrity about tinsel town. On her birthday, we have rounded out five reasons why Sara is the one we will always love – aaj, kal, aur hamesha!

Faking is not Sara’s cup of tea. In an interview to a leading news channel, she had admitted that she cannot be fake. She credits her cool-girl attitude to her mom Amrita, who by the way is one of the boldest cine-queens Bollywood ever had. In fact, rummage through Armita’s early industry days and we see a striking similarity in the mother-daughter that goes beyond their beauty.

Never before the chat show episode where Sara Ali Khan candidly spoke about PCOD had we seen a celebrity do something like that. Besides, she even addressed the elephant in the room by going into the details of Saif’s second marriage with Kareena Kapoor Khan and her mom dressing her up for the wedding. The way this 23-year-old handled the delicate and equally complex human relationships around her is inspirational.

She’s not the one with starry vibes. Sara Ali Khan is a royal descent and belongs to the Pataudi lineage. All of 24, she is a force to reckon with. A rockstar in waiting and a superstar in the making and yet, the girl chooses to carry her own luggage at the airport, always makes it a point to greet paparazzi with a smile and warmth. It indeed is striking, because how many times have we seen a celebrity do that?

Besides, as far as fashion is concerned, Sara is redefining the style file. She can be deservedly credited to making white kurta-looks back in vogue and also for making a lehenga famous at an award show red carpet.

Sara Ali Khan has a lot to flaunt, starting with her drop-dead gorgeous face and frame. She comes across as a normal girl who isn’t afraid to admit a crush to the world. Yes, we are talking about her crush on Kartik Aaryan – a confession that made the world ship ‘SarTik.’ Soon after, we saw her exchanging greetings with the actor at an event and there has been no looking back. Even when Ananya Panday said she too crushes on Kartik!

From an alleged affair to an upcoming film – Sara and Kartik now continue to dominate headlines, like no biggie.

For starters, she speaks fluent and pure Hindi. Secondly, she knows more about history than any of her peers. And well, the girl is an Ivy League College graduate. Sara Ali Khan studied at Columbia University. She entered Bollywood only after finishing her education and thanks academics for shaping the person she is today.

Brb, we are busy figuring out how to make ourselves a permanent roommate in Sara’s heart.
