Sara Ali Khan on Playing Sharmila Tagore: She’s So Graceful, Don’t Know If I Am

Sara Ali Khan spoke about playing her grandmother and veteran actress Sharmila Tagore on-screen if a biopic is made on Tagore. During a live show on Roposo, when a fan asked Khan if she would portray Tagore on-screen she said, “She’s so graceful. I don’t know if I’m graceful.”

“I speak to badi amma (grandmother) quite a lot, but I don’t think I’ve actually spent much time speaking to her about her career as such. There are so many other things. She’s so well-read, interested in current events, and has a great sense of general knowledge. She’s such a classy lady and she’s had such a life. She has world views and we’ve spent so much more time talking about that than actually her craft, which I think I should.” she added.

Tagore is known for her remarkable performances in movies such as Kashmir Ki Kali (1964) her chemistry with Rajesh Khanna was also liked by the audience in the films like Aradhana (1969), Safar (1970), Amar Prem (1972) and others.

Khan will be seen next in Laxman Utekar’s project opposite Vicky Kaushal and also in Gaslight along with Vikrant Massey.
