Mumbai: In a recent interview, Bollywood actress Sara Ali Khan expressed her passion for travel, emphasizing that exploring India offers unparalleled experiences in heritage, culture, and landscapes. When asked about her travel preferences, she replied, “Both! I can’t choose. While I enjoy traveling abroad, nothing compares to exploring my own country.”
Sara, a self-proclaimed mountain lover, frequently shares her adventures in Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, on social media. When questioned about her ideal permanent home, she stated, “I love the sea, but everyone knows I have a deep affection for the mountains. There’s something timeless about that terrain. But who knows? I might change my mind!”
She revealed her fondness for Kedarnath, saying, “It’s a very special place for me. If I could, I’d spend all my time there.” Regarding her accommodation preferences while traveling, she favors Airbnbs, stating, “It’s the best way to experience a destination through a local’s lens, and it’s great value, especially when traveling with friends or family.”
Sara, the daughter of Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh, values staying grounded, a lesson instilled in her by her mother. “Being basic over luxury makes me relatable,” she said, adding that spending time with family and friends brings her joy.
Despite her busy schedule, Sara prioritizes mindfulness, even if it’s challenging. “After a long shoot or travel day, it’s hard, but I find time, even if it’s just 10 minutes, for a workout or meditation to start my day positively,” she shared.
Recently, Sara has partnered with Airbnb for a wellness retreat in Goa, a place where she feels most at ease. She described the retreat as a perfect blend of her love for wellness, travel, and the serene environment of Goa. Guests will enjoy a minimalist space with earthy tones, a beautiful pool, and a gazebo surrounded by nature, along with nutritious meals like sprouts salad, grilled fish or chicken, and palak paneer with roti.
