Moreover, a certain section of netizens slammed the temple authorities for allowing Sara to enter the premises of a Hindu temple despite being from a different religious faith. A few others also took a jibe at Sara’s speculated relationship with cricketer, Shubman Gill and mentioned that she might have gone to seek blessings on his behalf.
Besides her busy professional life, Sara is close to her family and always spends quality time with them.

In one of her earlier interviews, Sara revealed how she is entitled to inherit her grandmother, Sharmila’s heirloom chaandbalas which simply speak everything regal and beautiful. Spilling beans on the same, she mentioned:
“A pair of chandbalas holds a significant family legacy, passed down from my grandmother, gifted by her mother-in-law, then inherited by my mother, and now destined to be passed on to Ibrahim’s future wife. However, I possess a written declaration from my grandfather stating that these earrings belong to me. I am captivated by their beauty and charm, and my desire to possess them extends to my unwavering attention and safekeeping, as they have been bestowed upon me.”
