In an interview with Mid Day, Sara acknowledged that her protective and nurturing behavior towards Ibrahim started from their upbringing with a single mother, actress Amrita Singh. This unique family structure, Sara explained, sometimes blurred the lines of traditional sibling roles.
“I feel like I should apologize to Ibrahim for trying to mother him too much,” she admitted, expressing regret for her overly maternal approach.
Sara described Ibrahim as a “solid guy” who is “much more sorted and mature” than she is, despite her academic achievements. She praised his grounded nature and admitted that while Ibrahim often sought her advice, she found herself turning to him for guidance even more frequently.
Reflecting on their relationship, Sara noted that Ibrahim had effectively grown up with “two mothers” due to her overprotectiveness. Despite this, their bond remains strong, characterized by mutual respect and affection.
On the professional front, Sara Ali Khan is gearing up for her next big project, ‘Metro…In Dino’, directed by Anurag Basu. The film is scheduled to release in theaters on November 29, 2024.
