Sara Ali Khan's Awkward Reaction To Reporter's Question Goes Viral: ‘Mere Father Aur Kareena'
Last Updated:
As Sara hesitated, her co-star Neena Gupta stepped in to lighten the moment, teasing the reporter for putting Sara in a tricky spot.
Sara Ali Khan was caught off guard at the trailer launch of Metro…In Dino in Mumbai on Tuesday (June 4), when a reporter asked her an unexpectedly personal question. During a media interaction round, she was asked to name her favourite Bollywood couple who are both married and successful. The question appeared to make her visibly uncomfortable, leaving her momentarily speechless.
As Sara hesitated, her co-star Neena Gupta stepped in to lighten the moment, teasing the reporter for putting Sara in a tricky spot. After a brief pause, Sara responded, 'Mere father and Kareena," referring to her father Saif Ali Khan and his wife Kareena Kapoor Khan.
The reporter further prodded, asking what quality she admired in Saif and Kareena's relationship. Before she could answer, Aditya Roy Kapur jumped in with a witty quip, 'Ye next trailer launch pe answer karenge?" prompting laughter from the entire panel. Pankaj Tripathi also joined the fun, joking, 'Ye alag se kahin likhoge kya?"
This isn't the first time Sara has been asked about her modern family dynamics. On Koffee With Karan, Sara had once opened up about her bond with Kareena. When Karan Johar asked if she had ever addressed Kareena as 'Chhoti Maa," Sara replied, 'I think Kareena would have a nervous breakdown if I was to call her chhoti maa," before adding with a laugh, 'What? No!"
Meanwhile, Metro…In Dino brings together a large ensemble cast including Aditya Roy Kapur, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Konkona Sen Sharma, Anupam Kher, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, and Saswata Chatterjee. Directed by Anurag Basu and jointly produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Anurag Basu, and Taani Basu, the film is scheduled to release on July 4.
The trailer promises heartfelt stories about love, choices, and relationships set in the urban sprawl.

India's highest paid actress, second most followed celebrity investor, yet no Bollywood film in 5 years- Find out who
At a time when equal pay in the film industry is still a hot topic, this actress has broken barriers by out-earning many of her male counterparts with a staggering ₹ 30 crore fee for her upcoming film. She's also emerged as one of the most followed celebrity investors of the year. Yet, despite all this success, she hasn't appeared on the Indian big screen in not one, but five whole years. Can you guess who she is? According to the 2025 Candere Hurun India Women Leaders list, Priyanka Chopra is the second most followed celebrity investor on the list, only slightly behind the topper, Shraddha Kapoor with 94.1 million followers. Priyanka has 92.4 million followers online as per the list; 92.3 million alone on Instagram and 27.2 million on X, formerly Twitter. The list mentioned, 'Priyanka Chopra, 42, with 92.4 million followers, is a global icon and the Co-founder of Purple Pebble Pictures, a production company. She is also the Co-founder of Anomaly Haircare, a brand known for its high-quality, sustainable hair care products. With her entrepreneurial spirit and global reach, Priyanka has expanded her influence beyond acting, making a significant mark in the entertainment and beauty industries.' Reportedly, Priyanka's total net worth is said to be around ₹ 650 crore. She was last seen in the short film, We Are One Family as herself in 2020. However, her last full length role in a Bollywood film was in the movie, The Sky Is Pink, released in 2019. She is set to mark her comeback in Indian cinema with filmmaker SS Rajamouli's next tentatively titled, SSMB29. It also has Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran. According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, Priyanka Chopra has charged a massive ₹ 30 crore for the Rajamouli film, becoming the highest-paid actress in Indian cinema. A source told the portal previously, 'This is why they took so long to announce her participation in the project. She was not willing to budge over her fee, and why should she? Why should only the men actors get double-digit salaries in our films?" Notably, while ₹ 30 crore is a record-breaking paycheck for an Indian actress, Priyanka has earned even more internationally. Now based out of Los Angeles with husband Nick Jonas, she reportedly took home $5 million (over ₹ 41 crore) for her role in Amazon Prime Video's Citadel, as per Hindustan Times. With her recent ₹ 30 crore deal for the pan-India film, Priyanka Chopra has officially surpassed Deepika Padukone to become the highest-paid actress in India. Deepika was the previous highest-earning actress after charging ₹ 20 crore for her role in Kalki 2898 AD.

‘RWAs, individuals can prune trees in emergency situations'
New Delhi: Delhi environment minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa shared a standard operating procedure allowing individuals, RWAs, and land-owning agencies to prune or fell trees in "emergency situations" under Section 8 of the Delhi Preservation of Trees Act, 1994 (DPTA). Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Sirsa clarified that while Section 8 of the DPTA generally prohibits the felling, removal, or disposal of trees without prior permission from the Tree Officer, it includes provisions for emergency situations where a tree poses an immediate threat to life, property, or traffic. In such cases, individuals or responsible agencies may take action after they report it to the Tree Officer within 24 hours. The forest dept has issued guidelines outlining circumstances that may warrant immediate pruning or removal. These include cases where trees are obstructing roads, bridges, drains, or sewer lines; damaging buildings or heritage structures; interfering with Metro or Railway infrastructure; or where trees are dried, dead, or leaning precariously, posing a risk of falling. In such instances, the concerned party must upload a report on the DPTA e-Forest portal within 24 hours, which must include photos from at least three angles, site geo-coordinates, justification for the action, and post-action images. These will be treated as valid compliance under the Act. Sirsa warned that any misuse under the emergency clause would attract strict legal action.
