Sara Arjun
has been the talk of the town, since her alleged on-screen romantic linkup with
Ranveer Singh
in the upcoming spy-thriller Dhurandhar. The first look of the film that dropped online, set tongues wagging about the 20-year age gap between the actress and her hunky co-star.
Social meida was filled with posts questioning their alleged on-screen pair-up, even though the debate sprang from mere speculation of her role in the film.
What made the casting choice even more interesting was that just a decade ago, Sara was cast as the daughter of
Aishwarya Rai
Bachchan in the 2015 crime thriller Jazbaa.
Back in Jazbaa, directed by
Sanjay Gupta
, Sara played Sanaya Verma, the young daughter of Aishwarya's character, Advocate Anuradha Verma.
Despite being only around ten years old at the time, Sara delivered a standout performance, which eventually led her to be cast as a younger version of Aishwarya's character Nandini in Ponniyin Selvan.
Now, a decade later, Sara takes on a more mature role in Dhurandhar, opposite Ranveer. While some perceive it as a bold pairing as a ploy for a high-stakes espionage arc, others feel it's an unusual mismatch.
As the clip continues to generate buzz around the unusual casting, rest assured that all eyes will be on the big screen to see how Sara sheds her girl-next-door image to take on a romantic lead as a Bollywood heroine.
Releasing on 5 Dec, 2025, the film features an ensemble cast including
Akshaye Khanna
,
Sanjay Dutt
, R. Madhavan, and
Arjun Rampal
.
