Going by the comments on social media, it appears that Sara Ali Khan's fan base multiplied by several times after her Koffee With Karan debut. The actress-in-waiting answered all the questions on the show in style and talked about dealing with Polycystic Ovarian Disease or PCOD with ease, which the Internet found impressive. "Mature conversation about weight issues, hormonal imbalance and all that. Need more such mainstream conversation on women's health," wrote a Twitter user. Among other things, Twitter users were impressed with Sara Ali Khan's confidence and the way in which she talked about dealing with weight issues.
In one of the segments, Karan Johar played two clips featuring Sara Ali Khan from when she was studying in Columbia University. She weighed 96 kilos then and speaking of which, Sara said: "I had PCOD. I still do. And because of that I think I put on the amount of weight that I did." Saif Ali Khan cut in and asked: "It had nothing to do with the pizzas you used to have?" And Sara continued: "Of course it was. I ate a lot... but I also did have PCOD which made it very hard for me to lose weight."
Twitter users applauded Sara for speaking about dealing with PCOD on national television. There was not one dull moment when Sara Ali Khan spoke. Here are some tweets from Sara Ali Khan's cheerleading squad:
Is it only me or Sara Ali Khan is extremely awesome! My God, I love her. Thanks to her, I can now admit that I also have PCOD.

#KoffeeWithKaran Loved how #Sara opened up about her PCOD issues. She proved all it takes is good confidence to overcome anything. Even on the heavier side she looked smart and confident.

I've gained so much respect for Sara after KWK. The way she was open about her PCOD, and shared videos of when she was obese. The way she wasn't biased towards Kareena, when it came to beauty she chose Deepika, and best actress as Alia. This girl is honest asf. I stan.
