Ranveer Singh's film *Dhurandhar* is achieving major box office success, having earned over Rs 350 crore in its first 10 days and surpassing *Pushpa 2*. The spotlight is also on Sara Arjun, who plays Ranveer Singh's wife in the movie.
*Dhurandhar*'s box office numbers are climbing rapidly, soon exceeding the lifetime earnings of Aditya Dhar's *Uri: The Surgical Strike*, which starred Vicky Kaushal. The film has already outperformed *Simmba* (2018), Ranveer Singh's second-highest-grossing movie, which made Rs 240 crore during its theatrical run. According to early estimates, *Dhurandhar* has grossed over Rs 350 crore within ten days of release.
Sara Arjun, born in 2005, portrays Yaalina Jamil in *Dhurandhar*. She is the daughter of actor Raj Arjun, well-known for his role as Farookh Malik in *Secret Superstar* (2017).
Sara began her acting career very early, making her debut in a television commercial at just 18 months old. She became a popular child actress, appearing in more than 100 commercials.
Her breakthrough role came at age six when she played Nila in the Tamil film *Deiva Thirumagal*, starring Vikram, which brought her considerable recognition.
Since then, Sara has worked in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu cinema. Her Bollywood debut was in the 2013 horror-thriller *Ek Thi Daayan*, and she has since been in films such as *Saivam*, *Saand Ki Aankh*, and Mani Ratnam's *Ponniyin Selvan* series.
Despite her busy acting schedule, Sara has prioritized her education. In a 2023 interview, she mentioned that she never missed school because her shoots were usually planned during school vacations. She has completed over 20 films while keeping up with her studies. Sara said that while she does well in school, acting is her real passion.
Amidst the success of *Dhurandhar*, Sara's father, Raj Arjun, recently shared an emotional message about their relationship. He recalled his early struggles in Mumbai, facing numerous auditions and rejections without industry connections. He credited Sara with renewing his motivation and helping him become the artist he is today.
Raj Arjun wrote that Sara shaped him, even though many believe fathers guide their daughters. He stated that Sara was his "Dhurandhar," supporting him through difficult times. He added that being a father means supporting a child's growth by giving them space and trust.
At only 20 years old, Sara Arjun has made a name for herself in cinema and has inspired her father. As *Dhurandhar* continues its successful run, audiences anticipate her future projects.
