Sara Ali Khan said she had no godfather in Bollywood and her father never begged people to take her in films. She admitted having an edge with her debut but insisted she handled her own career struggles. She said, “I live with a single mother. I've not had a father.”
She added, “We were just fortunate enough. I don't think it's fair to be hung for what's not our fault. Do I feel we have an edge? Yes, for sure. We were given a debut that people crave for. But eight years into my career, having to still explain that to people… I don't think that that onus should lie on me. I live with a single mother. I've not had a father going to offices, negotiating my contracts and begging people to take me in their films. When I had a problem with Kedarnath, I was sorting it out myself. There was no one with me. It's a double-edged sword. Because I've not had a godfather in the industry at all.”
