Sara Arfeen Khan: I visit Goa whenever I want to slow down and just be
For Sara Arfeen Khan, Goa isn't just a travel destination — it's a place that grounds her, creatively and emotionally. Having recently visited the sunshine state again, the actress reflects on how the place continues to evolve with her.
She shares, 'Goa has always felt like a second home. It's where I come when I want to slow down and just be. The sun, the breeze, the unfiltered life… there's a rawness to it that I love. This time, I returned with a different energy… freer, more centered, and creatively charged.'

While Goa has always held a special place in her heart, it was shooting at Fort Aguada that truly stood out during her latest visit. The historic fort, overlooking the vast expanse of the Arabian Sea, left a profound impression on her.
She says, 'Shooting at Fort Aguada in Goa was nothing short of magical. There's something timeless about standing on those ancient stones with the ocean stretching endlessly behind you.
The energy of the place is grounding. It's strong, silent, and full of stories. For me, it wasn't just a shooting location; it was a space to pause, reflect, and express.'
On the work front, Sara is waiting for the right opportunity to come her way.

'Bigg Boss gave me the confidence to be unapologetically myself'
Sara credits Bigg Boss for giving her not just public recognition but also the courage to embrace her truest self — both on and off screen. 'Post Bigg Boss, life has shifted beautifully. What really touches me is how people now call me by my first name — 'Sara!' — and it feels so personal, so warm. The show gave me visibility, yes, but more than that, it gave me the confidence to be unapologetically myself.'
