Overview
- In a filmed Curly Tales conversation shared on Instagram this week, Sara Ali Khan described routinely ordering two medium pizzas and eating three chocolate chip brownies for breakfast while studying in New York.
- She blamed the pizza habit on a buy-one-medium-get-second-half-price deal and called the period 'mindless eating,' saying convenience and price drove her choices.
- Those student habits came years before the actress’s widely reported roughly 45 kg weight loss that she undertook before her Bollywood debut in Kedarnath.
- Several outlets quoted the interview and used it to examine student food culture, and one dietitian quoted in coverage recommended whole-food, fiber-forward meals and eating a salad before meals as a sustainable approach.
- The anecdote fits into Sara’s long-running public narrative about weight, health and PCOS and has resonated with young people who say discounts, stress and short schedules often normalize unhealthy eating.
