Saif Ali Khan relieved that Sara Ali Khan is in Karan Johar’s ‘good hands’, takes a dig at Abhishek Kapoor

Saif Ali Khan’s elder daughter Sara Ali Khan is soon making her debut with not one but two films: Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath with Sushant Singh Rajput and Rohit Shetty’s directorial Simmba starring Ranveer Singh. Sara is a quintessential star kid who comes from the family of actors but yet her pathway to debut was not an easy one. She was first supposed to debut with Kedarnath but there was an internal dispute between its director and producers and the project got delayed. Saif, concerned as always, jumped on board to salvage his daughter’s career. Karan Johar, who is co-producing Simmba, signed Sara opposite Ranveer on Saif’s recommendation but the issue was not resolved here. Sara Ali Khan was sued for breach of contract by Abhishek Kapoor as she had already committed dates for Kedarnath and they were clashing with Simmba. Saif sorted that out with Kapoor and settled out of court. Now, Sara is working on multiple shifts to finish both projects on time.

Given this background, the Chef actor is happy that his daughter’s career is finally on track and in a recent interview he said that lot of factors went haywire with Sara’s debut but yet she managed to keep her head out of all the mess and find direction. Saif Ali Khan also said that he is really happy as Karan is playing a role at the very start of her career because he is responsible and careful filmmaker. He stated that there is a certain security when one is associated with Dharma Productions. He was indirectly hinting that the makers of Kedarnath did not show the same responsibility towards their project and therefore there were hassles with the film.

Professionally, Saif is working on Sacred Games and Bazaar is his next release.
