Sara Ali Khan says she can’t be ‘size zero’
Sara Ali Khan is one of the few actors who have shown complete dedication towards becoming fit and have had great results. During an interview with a leading entertainment daily, Sara Ali Khan was asked if Bollywood has now become more open to people of all shapes and sizes, giving the example of Bhumi Pednekar making her debut as an over-weight woman in Dum Laga Ke Haisa, or Vidya Balan being curvier than most actors.
To answer this question, Sara Ali Khan said that of course, the industry is becoming progressive and more accepting. However, she also feels that more than being accepted for your weight, it is a personal thing. Giving her own example, she says that it's just like herself aspiring for a ‘size zero’ body because she knows that it is not even going to happen, and she is completely okay with that.

When asked about Sara Ali Khan’s weight loss journey, she said that she finds it very fascinating that she did lose weight. She said that it was during the end of her second year of college when she realized that she really wants to act and that realization coincided with the fact that the weighing scale said that she is 96kgs so that made it a bit difficult. So she made up her mind to become fit and her regime only included the shift from pizza to protein bars and salads, which is healthy eating, and regular workouts at the gym.
