Sara Ali Khan is the daughter of actors Amrita Singh and Saif Ali Khan. The couple separated in 2004 when Sara was just 9 years old. In an interview with ETimes, when asked about the influence of strong women in her life, she said, "I think living with a single mother has a huge role to play in it."

She further added, "At a very early age, I realized koi aapke liye kuchh karne nahi wala (nobody is going to do anything for you). It's not that I don't get help, I do. But ultimately, you are the mover and initiator of your life. If you are lucky, stars align and God wills, then it will happen. You can't be waiting around for things to happen, it doesn't work like that."

Apart from Murder Mubarak, Sara is also set to be seen in Ae Watan Mere Watan. During the same interview, she was asked about playing the central character in Ae Watan Mere Watan. Calling it the "most gratifying experience" to be headlining a film like this, Sara continued, "It's about time, because you are going to see a side of me which even I have not seen before. My self-deprecating humour can keep going on, but I am about to say something which I haven't said in a long time, and that is why I'm really proud of myself. The last time I felt like that was during Kedarnath. I'm being honest.”
