‘My Gpay account is linked to hers, my OTPs come on her phone': Sara Ali Khan reveals how she manages finances
Sara Ali Khan recently opened up about her finances, sharing valuable insights into where she invests and who handles her accounts. 'I've learnt about the pie — basically, small things distributed in many instruments. My mom handles my money entirely, even my Gpay account is linked to her, my OTPs come on her phone,' said the Simba actor at the Times Now Summit 2025. When prodded about whether she receives pocket money, like all used to back in school, she shared, 'Forget pocket money, I can't book a ticket without asking her,' she said, adding that she generally invests in 'real estate, stock market, gold bonds, the usual.' Sara's revelation that her mother handles her investments brings us to a critical discussion that necessitates conversations surrounding financial literacy. Mukesh Pandey, Director of Rupyaa Paisa, told that in this day and age, it is no longer a matter of choice — the essential foundation of understanding financial instruments is a must now. 'Having even a basic understanding of key financial instruments like Fixed Deposits, Mutual Funds, Public Provident Fund (PPF), Health & Life Insurance, National Pension Scheme (NPS), Share Investment Plans (SIP) will allow you to keep some control of your financial journey and decisions,jh' he said. According to Panday, India is still far behind in financial literacy. 'A SEBI survey found that only 27% of Indians are financially literate. This suggests that almost three-fourths of our population may be investing without fully understanding where their money is going and what risk issues a particular instrument is associated with,' he shared. Giving an example of mutual funds, Pandey said that various people have invested in them with their focus on returns, but are unaware of where mutual funds fit in the investment risk spectrum. 'They also won't know about exit loads, and of course, they probably do not know that there is a difference between equity mutual funds and debt mutual funds,' he explained. When it comes to fixed deposits, which are a relatively safe option, understanding the impact of inflation on real returns becomes crucial. Someone may over-allocate to Fixed Deposits, thereby harming long-term wealth. With even basic knowledge, many of these mistakes can be avoided. Today, digital accessibility has already made financial products a click away, but with that ease of access comes responsibility. 'Understanding how to benefit from compounding through SIPs, tax-saving opportunities through ELSS or PPF, or even knowing the difference between term insurance and an investment-linked policy can change your financial journey,' stressedPandey. Instead of just letting someone else manage your money, he believes it is crucial to create awareness around your money; ultimately, awareness is the biggest asset you could have. 'Consider that simply making a habit of 15 minutes a week to inform yourself about a financial concept will change the game of financial understanding and ultimately planning,' she said, adding that 'financial awareness is not about knowing all – it is about knowing enough and protecting your future'.

VP Sara: Reconciling with Marcos not a priority
Vice President Sara Duterte said she is not prioritizing talks of reconciliation with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., saying the welfare of the public matters more than "personal issues." 'Unang-una, hindi muna siguro ako magsalita about reconciliation dahil hindi naman mahalaga siguro ang mga personal na problema... Ang mas mahalaga is 'yong taumbayan at iyong bayan natin,' she told reporters during an ambush interview at The Hague. (First of all, I don't think I should speak about reconciliation for now because personal problems are not important. What's more important is the people and our country.) VP Sara's comment comes days after Marcos disclosed that he is open to reconciling with the Dutertes. ''Oo, ako, ayoko ng gulo. Gusto ko magkasundo sa lahat ng tao. Mas maganda. Marami na kong kaaway, hindi ko kailangan ng kaaway, kailangan ko kaibigan,'' Marcos said in an interview with broadcaster Anthony Taberna. (I don't want trouble. I want to get along with everyone. It's better. I already have many enemies, I don't need enemies, I need friends.) READ: Uniteam no more: Timeline of Marcos-Duterte tandem's woes Dad wants to take oath VP Sara was in the Netherlands to visit her father, former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, who is detained at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague due to crimes against humanity charges. She said she was able to see her father for an hour on Friday and that they talked about Eleksyon 2025. 'Na-share ko... na nanalo iyong dalawang PDP Laban na senator candidates, tapos iyong isang guest candidate - si (Rodante) Marcoleta, plus dalawang guest candidates from Alyansa, si Senator Camille Villar at Senator Imee Marcos.' (I shared that two PDP Laban senator candidates won, along with guest candidate Rodante Marcoleta and two guest candidates from Alyansa – Senators Camille Villar and Imee Marcos.) She also mentioned that her father wants to take his oath after winning the mayoral race in Davao. 'I want... Set me free and I will take an oath,' Sara said quoting, her father. The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) earlier said it will ask the ICC to allow the former President to take oath as Davao City mayor while he is in detention in The Hague. SWS survey Duterte also addressed the recent Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey in which 88% of respondents said it was important for her to face the impeachment proceedings and answer the allegations. 'Oh, I totally agree. Kasama ako doon sa 88% na iyan... thankful sa opportunity na malinis iyong pangalan ko at masagot iyong mga akusasyon sa akin,' she said. (I totally agree. I'm part of that 88%... I'm thankful for the opportunity to clear my name and respond to the accusations against me.) The Vice President also said that the Senate's decision to move the presentation of the articles of impeachment hearings to June 11 has no effect on her. 'Wala naman siyang epekto sa akin... Iiwan na namin iyan sa mga lawyers namin, sa defense impeachment lawyers,' explained Duterte. (It has no effect on me... we'll leave that to our lawyers, the defense impeachment lawyers.) Imee The Vice President, meanwhile, also mentioned that Senator Imee Marcos, who is also currently at The Hague, was not permitted to visit her father. 'Hindi siya pinayagan ng ICC na makabisita at makausap si dating Pangulong Rodrigoe, she said. (I mentioned that she was not allowed by the ICC to visit and speak with former President Duterte.) Sara said her father was hoping to speak with Senator Marcos, but he is hopeful that there will be "another time." 'Unang-una, nagpasalamat siya. At pangalawa, sabi niya gusto nga daw niya sanang makausap si Senator Imee kaso hindi nga daw payagan pero sabi niya, 'There will be another time for that.'' (He was thankful. He wanted to talk to Senator Imee but wasn't allowed. He said, 'There will be another time for that.) —VAL, GMA Integrated News

Sara's blue-bow moment turns heads
Sara Ali Khan, once hailed as Bollywood's promising new face after delivering early hits like Simmba and Love Aaj Kal, has recently faced a string of underwhelming films, particularly on OTT platforms. However, the young actress continues to make headlines—this time not for her films, but for her fashion statement. At a recent event, Sara wowed fashion watchers in a light blue strapless mini-dress that balanced elegance with a playful twist. The dress featured a clean and structured front that flaunted her toned figure, paired with sparkling heels and subtle earrings. Her neatly pulled-back hair accentuated the neckline, giving her look a breezy, contemporary finish. The real show-stealer, however, was the oversized bow at the back—an unexpected, dramatic element that added flair to the otherwise minimalist outfit. The look was red-carpet ready, capturing both style and simplicity in one silhouette. On the work front, Sara is gearing up for Metro… In Dino, a slice-of-life comedy-drama helmed by acclaimed filmmaker Anurag Basu. The ensemble cast is packed with seasoned actors like Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, Konkona Sen Sharma, and Ali Fazal—making it a challenging space for Sara to stand out. Yet, the film could offer her the perfect opportunity to redefine her trajectory and prove her mettle amidst veterans.
