Hailing from Jammu and Kashmir, Sadia, in an exclusive interview with UNI, expressed, "His words were extremely encouraging and motivating."

Sadia made her debut in Vidhu Vinod Chopra's directorial 'Shikara' (2020). She later appeared in Akshay Kumar-starrer 'Raksha Bandhan' (2022) and 'The Diplomat' alongside John Abraham in 2025.

Speaking about Kapil Sharma as a co-star, Sadia said, "Kapil sir is very, very giving as an actor. He used to suggest good lines and punches. As a human being, he is like a next-door friend and never carries the baggage of being a superstar. He is so grounded, and I truly admire him."

Sharing her experience of 'Daadi Ki Shaadi', which released in theatres on May 8, Sadia said, "The moment I read the script, I agreed to do the film without a second thought because it revolves around family bonding, connection and emotions, something very close to where I come from."
