Saif Ali Khan’s upcoming comedy drama, Jawaani Jaaneman, is making a lot of noises and is expected to be a consecutive win for the actor post Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. The film stars Tabu as a hippie mommy and Pooja Bedi’s daughter Alaya F as the couple’s daughter. But did you know, Sara Ali Khan was supposed to make her debut with the film? Below is all you need to know.
For the unversed, although Sara along with Sushant Singh Rajput had already started working on Kedarnath, things took a toll and the future was unknown for Abhishek Kapoor’s tragic love story. The film was about to get shelved, and that’s when daddy Saif Ali Khan came to the rescue and offered Jawaani Jaaneman to the Simmba actress.

Saif himself made the revelation in a conversation with Pinkvilla as he began, “Yes, what had happened was that Kedarnath had almost been shelved and Sara didn’t have another movie. So this film was around and being the knight in shining armour and a good daddy, I asked her if she would like to do this. She had said yes.”
