“She’s my first friend, my sister…!” Nishaanchi actress Vedika shares adorable childhood memories with Sara Ali Khan
Nishaanchi actress Vedika recently opened up about her decades-long bond with Sara Ali Khan, sharing heartwarming and funny memories from their school days.
“So Sara is my life’s first friend. We were in school together. Sara is like a sister to me. I tell everyone that there is a friend and a family. We have been friends for 28 years. She is like a sister to me. We fight a lot. One time she fractured my finger. I used to bite her because she was elder to me. She was strong. I didn’t have any other option — I used to bite her,” Vedika shared, laughing.
She went on to recall one of their funniest childhood memories: “We had a fun fair in a club, and I will tell you Sara’s story. We had a stall, and for 2–3 weeks, my mom took us to a shop called Cheap Jack in Bandra. We bought a lot of beads, elastic bands and clasps, and we were making jewellery for three weeks. Then we set up a stall in the club — all the kids had stalls and a fair was going on. We started selling jewellery, lovingly asking the ladies to buy it. We sold one piece for ₹20 and one for ₹50. She was handling the cash register and I was selling. In the evening, all the money went missing. She took out all the money from the food stall and ate all the ice cream! There was no money left. I started crying thinking where the money went. My mom said, ‘What do you want from the money? We will buy it.’ She had wasted all the money. This is all because of which we fight.”
Even after years of friendship — full of laughter, mischief, and memories — Vedika and Sara’s bond continues to be as strong as ever.
