Sara Khan, currently seen in Chhathi Maiyya Ki Bitiya, represented India at the Namaste Vietnam Festival held in August. She expressed her love for visiting the country and described herself as fortunate. She said, “Representing your country in another country is a big responsibility, especially when it’s such a prestigious opportunity. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have the support that allows me to experience this.”
“Vietnam is a beautiful country with warm and loving people. The food there is different but delicious. It’s milder compared to Indian spices, but it’s a nice change and very healthy. We explored some breathtaking locations in Vietnam, which we are considering for our next project. The flowers, especially, were stunning. I’ve never seen such a variety of colors in one place before. It was truly outstanding,” she added.
She thanked the Consul General of India in Vietnam, Dr Madan Mohan Sethi, and Captain Rahul Bali, who is the curator of the Namaste Vietnam Festival.
Sara has turned producer and has collaborated with the Ministry of Vietnam for her upcoming movie, Night Out. She said, “India and Vietnam have joined forces to create some unique and entertaining projects. This collaboration aims to bring together local entertainment industries from both countries to create something fresh and engaging.”
She shared that with the film, she wants to branch out into other fields of the entertainment industry while exploring and showcasing different cultures, places, and beauties from around the world. “Vietnam is one of the most beautiful countries I’ve seen, and my movie will focus on a night out, travel, and the journey of my protagonist. It’s an out-and-out comedy that I’m excited to produce, as it allows me to showcase different cultures and settings in a unique way,” she added.
She is taking one step at a time and called this collaboration a learning experience. She said, “Every day is a new lesson, and I’m always striving to do better and grow. Although it can be challenging at times, I’m trying to adjust and will share more of my experiences as I gain them.”
As Sara gears up to don the producer’s hat, she is hopeful that the film will do well, as people internationally are excited about Indian films and TV shows. “The people and filmmakers there are talented and excited about working with us. They appreciate our work and are eager to collaborate on new projects, which is very encouraging,” she shared.
