Sara Ali Khan who gears up for Metro In Dino, has spoken about how social media trolling affects her and how she wants to hide her mother Amrita Singh's phone at times.
The actress revealed, 'I have always been like 'jo bolna hai bolo. Whenever someone says something bad, my only thought is 'oh God, I don't want my mom to read this'. That's the only thing that's hurtful.'
Sara added, 'I can fully understand that this is some nameless, frustrated person. But maa toh maa hoti hai. That's the only thing that really gets to me. If I could block her social media, I wouldn't give a damn!'
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
Sara Ali Khan and her fondness for going to Kedarnath is no secret to her fans and audience. While she has received hatred for 'being a Muslim going to a Hindi religious site,' the actress has learnt to tune out the negative noise.
In a recent interaction, the Sky Force star said her mother taught her to identify herself as an Indian instead of being described by a religion or a caste.
'I was very young, in school, and even when my parents were married and we used to immigrate together abroad, I used to always wonder… Amrita Singh, Saif Pataudi, Sara Sultana, Ibrahim Ali Khan, what is going on? Who are we? And I remember asking my mom, what am I? And she told me, you are Indian. And I will never forget that.' Sara said at the Times Now Summit 2025
When asked about her mom Amrita Singh's Sikh background, and her dad Saif Ali Khan's Muslim religion, the actress said that India is a secular country. 'We are a secular nation and I think that all these concepts, all these boundaries are made and manipulated by people and I don't adhere to them. I just don't give it the importance that the other person maybe does,' she said. While the trolls bother her, Sara shared that she has learnt to tune out the negativity. 'It's a fool's errand to change the way other people think. I have to tune it out,' she added..

Swedish content creator Karl Svanberg wins hearts with his love for Telugu cinema
In an inspiring cross-cultural journey from Sweden to South India, Karl Svanberg has emerged as a viral sensation by blending his passion for Telugu cinema with authentic and heartfelt content. With over one million followers on Instagram, Karl is now a beloved name among Telugu-speaking audiences across the globe. What began as a light-hearted attempt to mimic famous Indian movie scenes soon evolved into a serious creative pursuit. Karl's emotional delivery, near-perfect Telugu pronunciation, and striking screen presence have made his videos stand out. His reels, echoing iconic moments from blockbusters like Magadheera, Pushpa, and Arjun Reddy, are praised not just for entertainment but for the respect and sincerity they reflect. But behind Karl's rising fame is a strong and creatively gifted family. His wife, Ekaterina, supports his dream of becoming a full-time content creator, while his brother Ivan, a fashion designer, helps shape his visual style. His parents, Paula and Christer Svanberg—both painters—have clearly passed down an artistic legacy. Though Karl modestly calls himself a warehouse manager, his cinematic passion is anything but ordinary. His latest portrait by photographer Daniel Engvall captures Karl as a man bridging two worlds—firmly rooted in Sweden, yet deeply connected to the rhythms and emotions of Indian storytelling. Karl's story is more than just about viral fame; it's about cultural connection. His genuine admiration for Indian cinema, particularly Telugu films, and his efforts to learn the language and engage with the community have won him immense love. In a time when digital creators are abundant, Karl stands out as a rare artist whose heart and humility shine just as brightly as his content. From reels to real impact, Karl Svanberg is not just going viral—he's becoming a cultural bridge between Sweden and South India.

"Unjust, Irrational": AAP MP Amid Row Over Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaar Ji 3
An Aam Aadmi Party MP has come out in support of Punjabi actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh amid the ongoing controversy over his film Sardaar Ji 3, featuring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir. Dr Vikramjit Singh Sahney, Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha), termed the backlash against the actor for working with Pakistani actress as "unjust, excessive, and irrational". The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has called for withdrawing Dosanjh's citizenship and banning his music in India. "To question Diljit Dosanjh's patriotism is grossly unfair," said Dr Sahney. "The film was shot long before the unfortunate incident in Pahalgam. Even an Indo-Pak cricket match was held during that period. We should not confuse timelines or motives when making a judgment on someone's actions." Dr Sahney appreciated Diljit's mature and compassionate move not to release the film in Indian cinemas, being sensitive to public opinion. "He has been gracious in deciding not to release the film here. That says a lot about his character and regard for national feelings," said the AAP leader. He also pointed out Diljit's lead role in showcasing Indian culture on the world stage, from Coachella to the Met Gala, stating that the artist wore his identity as a proud Indian and a proud Punjabi. "Rather than demonising him on the basis of disinformation, we should be hailing him as a cultural ambassador," added Dr Sahney. The casting of a Pakistani actress in the film has been criticised, particularly against the backdrop of government's post-attack restrictions on Pakistani artists' involvement in Indian entertainment. Diljit Dosanjh maintains that his movie, Sardaar Ji 3, was finalised much earlier than these geopolitical events. "When the film was made, the situation was fine... This film was shot in February. A lot of things happened after that which are not in our control," Diljit had said earlier. The film body, Federation of Western India Cine Employees, appealed to the government to blacklist Diljit Dosanjh and Sardaar Ji 3 makers. They also appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure that their passports are revoked, and their citizenship is cancelled.
