According to rumours, Sara was dating Kartik Aaryan, her co-star in Love Aaj Kal. Both the actors have never accepted or denied their relationship in public, but in an interview from last year, director Karan Johar discussed their supposed breakup. There have also been rumours about Sara dating Indian cricketer Shubman Gill, however neither party has officially spoken about it. Sara revealed in an interview with ETimes what her mother Amrita Singh told her when she got to know about Sara’s breakup. She said, “It's okay.” Further when asked her actor-father Saif Ali Khan’s reaction to her film Love Aaj Kal starring alongside Kartik Aaryan, she said, “He was not happy. He did not like the performance. He said it was not good.”

Sara recently acknowledged in another interview that she struggled in the movie Love Aaj Kal. Sara had stated during her appearance on The Ranveer Show, “My performance in Love Aaj Kal was really horrible. Like, I was not convincing in Coolie. I think that I'm aware of that. I am aware of the fact that... see it's also an expectation game, after Kedarnath and Simmba, me, my mother [Amrita Singh], my brother [Ibrahim Ali Khan], audiences, everybody had a certain expectation because I was decent in these films. I did come out suddenly and it was like, 'Oh my god, Sara!' And then I gave you two back-to-back films where you're like, 'Really Sara?'”

On the work front, Sara Ali Khan has a promising line-up of films in her kitty. Apart from Gaslight, she has Laxman Utekar's next untitled film, co-starring Vicky Kaushal. She has also signed up to play the lead in the patriotic drama Ae Watan Mere Watan. She plays the role of a freedom fighter in this film, which will be released directly on OTT. She is also a part of Homi Adajania's next, titled Murder Mubarak.
