Actor Sara Ali Khan has opened up about her eating habits before her dramatic 45 kg weight loss ahead of her Bollywood debut in Kedarnath. In an interview with Curly Tales, Sara revealed that during her student days in New York, she regularly ate two medium pizzas and three chocolate chip brownies in a day, calling it a phase of “mindless eating”.
Recalling her lifestyle before entering films, Sara said her food choices were more influenced by budget-friendly offers than nutrition. She shared that a deal at a pizza outlet often encouraged her to order more food than she actually needed. “If you buy one medium pizza, you get the second one for 50 per cent off,” she said, joking that she “didn’t do the math properly” at the time.

Speaking about her eating habits in New York, Sara revealed that brownies were a regular part of her breakfast routine. She said she would eat three chocolate chip brownies while walking to class every morning.
The actor recalled that her walk to class lasted only a few minutes, but she would still finish all three brownies on the way. Looking back at that period, Sara described it as a time when she paid very little attention to her food choices or portion sizes.

Before making her acting debut in Kedarnath opposite late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, Sara underwent a major fitness transformation. She reportedly lost close to 45 kg through a disciplined combination of workouts, dietary changes and lifestyle adjustments.
Over the years, the actor has often spoken about fitness, self-discipline and maintaining a healthier relationship with food. Her latest remarks once again offered a glimpse into the stark contrast between her life as a student and her journey into Bollywood.
In a 2019 interview with Harper's Bazaar, Sara talked about her dramatic weight loss and how it was her PCOS that pushed her to take that journey as much as vanity.
She said, "We can talk about acceptance and equality, but you will not watch a movie with your lead heroine being 96 kilos. And whichever community gets offended with me, please watch one that’s not Dum Laga Ke Haisha and then talk to me."
Why Is Sara’s Transformation Still Talked About?
Sara’s fitness journey continues to draw attention because of how openly she discusses her struggles with food and weight. The actor has frequently spoken about balancing exercise with healthier eating habits while adapting to the demands of the film industry.
On the work front, Sara was recently seen in Pati Patni aur Woh Do, and is gearing up for the biographical drama Udta Teer which is slated for release on September 11, 2026.
