The context of Sara Ali Khan’s quote
In the mentioned interview, Sara was asked about how she viewed fame and success, belonging to a family of generational celebrities. She responded that, looking at her parents, she has always striven to be original.
“I’ve always aspired to … be an honest, true, and an original person. If I’m being very honest, the world we live in can be very confusing; you may think you’re part of a rat race. This is where you need to remind yourself that you need to be yourself and a better version every single day,” she stated.
To ensure that she stays away from the rat race, Sara shared that she does not let fame, which comes on its own with being a successful actor, get to her head.
“Understanding success, failure, highs and lows, the fame, all of that is an important aspect of me, but it doesn’t define me. I’m in touch with a more internal core aspect of myself that will not change even if these things go up and down,” she stated.
“You’ll be good one Friday and not good on another. I just aspire to be the kind of person who appreciates her fame, who strives for success, but doesn’t allow herself to be validated by that.”
What is the relevance of Sara Ali Khan’s quote?
In a world where rat races are increasingly becoming the norm, Sara Ali Khan’s quote bears a message that is worth remembering every day.
Being oneself is not always about doing something defiant or outlandish; it is also about being confident in one's own self.
However, that confidence should not come with complacency, and people striving to be better every day is how society moves forward as a whole.
