Actor Sara Arjun, who recently gained fame in the north with Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar, promoted her upcoming Telugu film Euphoria in Hyderabad on Saturday. The actor spoke about gaining popularity after Dhurandhar and revealed who had favourite Tollywood star is. And it’s not Mahesh Babu or Allu Arjun.
Sara Arjun’s favourite Telugu star
Sara addressed the press in fluent Telugu at the event and said, “It feels special to stand in front of my Telugu audience after a long time. I admire the way warmth, culture and stories are celebrated here. I just hope it connects with the audience; it’s a very important story.”
When asked who her favourite Telugu star is, the actor pondered for a while before saying, “There are many, I can’t choose. But right now, I really like Vijay Deverakonda.” Ever since he gained fame with the 2017 Sandeep Reddy Vanga film Arjun Reddy, Vijay has been in the news as much for his statements off-screen as for his roles.
On finding fame after Dhurandhar
Sara was asked numerous times about finding fame after Dhurandhar. When asked if it has changed the way she looks at roles, she said, “I don’t look at change per project; I look for it every day. I realise it’s a big privilege to pursue this as my profession. I feel a greater sense of responsibility to deliver better, that’s all. I don’t like to put too much pressure on myself. I will always have it over my shoulders to do better.”

Sara, daughter of actor Raj Arjun, appeared in numerous commercials and Hindi and Tamil films as a child actor. After playing a young Nandini, played by Aishwarya Rai as an adult, in Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan films, she made her debut as a lead actor in Dhurandhar, opposite Ranveer Singh.

He also appeared before the ED for allegedly promoting a money-laundering app. He will soon star in Rowdy Janardhana and a yet-to-be-titled film by Rahul Sankrityan.
