In 2019, a young Bollywood actress — Sara Ali Khan — made her magazine cover debut with Filmfare in a shoot that took place in the picturesque Masai Mara National Reserve. In the photo spread inside, the actor is seen donning a yellow dress and in the background, as props, are the natives of this reserve, the Masai tribesmen. Dressed in their traditional attire, the Shuka, and beaded jewelry, the tribesmen flank the actress in the images.
