Who Is Sara Arjun? 20-Year-Old Actress Starring Opposite Ranveer Singh in Dhurandhar Was Once India’s Richest Child Star
Share this article:
Sara Arjun , once hailed as the richest child actor in India, is all grown up and ready to take centre stage. At just 20, she’s making her debut as a lead opposite Ranveer Singh in Dhurandhar , a high-octane spy thriller from filmmaker Aditya Dhar. While the film boasts a stellar cast, it’s Sara’s striking transformation that’s turning heads.
Who is Sara Arjun? A Familiar Face, Now All Grown Up
Born in 2005 to actor Raj Arjun , Sara began her journey in front of the camera when she was barely a toddler. Her talent first gained national attention in 2011 with Deiva Thirumagal, where she played Vikram’s daughter. Since then, she’s appeared in notable films like Ek Thi Daayan, Saivam, and Saand Ki Aankh, steadily building a reputation for her performances.
The Child Star Who Made Crores
Sara’s biggest breakthrough came with Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan , where she played the young version of Aishwarya Rai’s character, Nandini. The two-part historical drama raked in ₹800 crore globally, firmly placing Sara in the spotlight. By 2022, reports claimed her net worth had reached ₹10 crore, earning her the title of India’s richest child actor - until she turned 18, when the title passed to Riva Arora.
Stepping Into the Spotlight with Dhurandhar
Now, Sara steps into a new chapter with Dhurandhar, where she plays the female lead alongside Ranveer Singh. While her screen time may be brief in the teaser, her presence is undeniable - appearing in scenes that show her dancing in a club, riding pillion with Ranveer, and sharing a romantic moment with him. The film marks her first official role as a leading lady, signaling a bold transition from child star to heroine.
A Film Shrouded in Mystery
Dhurandhar is produced by Aditya Dhar, in collaboration with Jio Studios and B62 Studios, and features a powerhouse cast including Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and R Madhavan. Though the story is under wraps, it's widely speculated to be inspired by the real-life exploits of Indian super spy and NSA Ajit Doval. The makers haven’t confirmed the rumour, but the teaser hints at real events forming the backdrop.
With Dhurandhar, Sara Arjun is no longer just the little girl from heartwarming dramas - she’s stepping into the limelight as a full-fledged star. And if the first glimpse is any indication, her second innings is just as promising.
