ELLE: Hi Sara! What’s your earliest childhood memory?
Sara Ali Khan: It was Rakhsha Bandhan and my brother was sitting on my lap. Just as I was really caught up in the moment and how adorable it was, he peed on me! I’ll never forget that.
ELLE: That’s hilarious. so, if we were to ask what “family” means to you…
SAK: Family is what you go home to. It’s where you learn how to eat, sleep and think. It is the foundation for everything in life.
ELLE: You’ve often said you’re a bookworm. Who is your favourite author?
SAK: I don’t have a favourite author, but I do immensely enjoy the works of the historian Michael Lynch.
ELLE: Okay, and what are you currently reading?
SAK: Simon Sebag Montefiore’s Written In History: Letters That Changed The World (2018).
