Watch: Sara Ali Khan turns freedom fighter clad in khadi saree
On Monday, Sara Ali Khan’s first appearance in the Prime Video original film Ae Watan Mere Watan was presented. For her job, she dons a novel, unheard-of appearance. Sara plays a courageous freedom fighter in the Kannan Iyer-directed movie. It is reportedly a thriller drama based on real-life incidents.
Sara is dressed in a pre-Independence-era appearance in the Ae Watan Mere Watan teaser. She is shown in a sari drawing back every curtain in the space before sitting down to assemble what appears to be a radio. “The British feel they have curbed the Quit India movement. Lekin azad awazein qaid nahi hoti. Ye ha Hindustan ki awaz, Hindustan me kahin se, kahin pe Hindustan mein (Free voices cannot be held captive. This is Hindustan’s voice, from somewhere in the country).” She soon has a loud banging on the door cut off and a surprised expression covers her face.
Sara said in a press statement, “I am so excited and honoured that Prime Video and Dharmatic Entertainment have given me the opportunity to be a part of a film that I truly believe deserves to be told. As an actor, and more importantly as an Indian I am proud to be able to portray a character that echoes bravery, strength and courage.”
“Working with Kannan Iyer sir is a sheer privilege as he is so passionate and emotionally invested in this story himself. And while of course it is very challenging to essay a character that is vastly different from anything that I’ve done before, it is a project I’m going to work really hard on. And most importantly, I’m going to cherish every day that I get to play an enigmatic freedom fighter.”
