Sara Ali Khan can’t stop talking about the amount of fun she had on the sets of Coolie No 1, saying she hopes that the audience has the same amount of fun watching the film which will hit streaming giant Amazon Prime Video on December 25.In this interview with indianexpress.com, Sara talks about working on the remake of a comedy classic, which starred her idols and ‘super entertainers’ Govinda and Karishma Kapoor. She also shares how the film’s narrative was tweaked to suit today’s audience.I was thrilled. I felt so lucky and privileged that I was offered something as fun and cool as Coolie No 1. I am also thankful that I got an opportunity to star opposite Varun Dhawan and be directed by the master of comedy films, David Dhawan.Honestly, I think it is a timeless film. I grew up watching it. The genre of comedy is timeless, but this film specifically is evergreen. I could totally relate to the film’s content and couldn’t stop myself from doing the film. It was a very exciting project to be a part of.It was an amazing experience. David Dhawan’s films are, of course, great, but his songs are so much fun. Especially for me, songs are easier to immediately connect to than films. I have been a huge fan of the songs in all his movies and Ganesh (Acharya) sir is my favourite.The opportunity to work with both of them and recreate that kind of magic was surreal.
