Sara Ali Khan is stepping into new cinematic territory with Anurag Basu’s 'Metro In Dino', and it’s not just her character or co-star Aditya Roy Kapur that’s grabbing attention—it’s her unexpected transformation. Ditching her signature glam for a geek-chic avatar, Sara appears in short hair, a front fringe, glasses.

Sara’s offbeat makeover has stirred a buzz online. Many have drawn parallels with Kriti Sanon’s edgy look in Bhediya or Katrina Kaif’s quirky appearance in Jagga Jasoos, a more left-field comparison has now taken over social media—and it involves none other than her own father, Saif Ali Khan.

Netizens feel Sara Ali Khan looks like Saif Ali Khan's Humshakals version

Yes, comparisons are being drawn between Sara’s new look and Saif’s cross-dressed avatar in Sajid Khan’s 2014 comedy 'Humshakals'. In that film, Saif, alongside co-actors Riteish Deshmukh and Ram Kapoor, donned women’s attire for comic relief. Fans have taken the liberty of creating memes, reels, and photo collages that feature side-by-sides of Sara’s Metro In Dino avatar and Saif in his 'Humshakals' get-up—and the resemblance is both amusing and uncanny.

Interestingly, back when 'Humshakals' released, Kareena Kapoor Khan had complimented Saif’s look in a behind-the-scenes clip, calling him “beautiful.”

Netizens have a field day

Now, the internet is having its own field day. One user joked, “That’s how almost all daughters look. Dad versions but with frocks n makeup.” Another wrote, “19 20 ka hi farq hai🤣.” One particularly observant fan quipped, “Saif’s genes are way too strong,” while others added, “Carbon copy 😂😂😂.” Some even argued that Saif resembled Kareena more than anyone else, with comments like, “Saif is looking more like Kareena Kapoor 😂😂,” and “Saif toh Kareena jaisi lag rha hai 😂.” One fan hilariously concluded, “Saif is looking like a combo of Sara and Kareena 😂.”

With a cast that also includes Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Konkona Sensharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, and Saswata Chatterjee, 'Metro In Dino' is slated for release on July 4.
