New Delhi:

In 9 years of her stay in Bollywood, Kiara Advani has made some bold choices when it came to portraying complex characters like Nanki Dutta in Guilty or being part of a film like Kabir Singh, which was found unpalatable by many. In a recent interview with Femina however, when the actress was asked about essaying the role of Preeti, a meek medical student, in Kabir Singh, Kiara Advani spoke about not seeing things as black and white, or judging the characters she plays. She said, "I have never played a character I didn't like. If I don't like my character, I better not be doing the movie. We need to accept that there are all sorts of people. We can't cancel everyone." Kiara added, "If Kabir Singh didn't start a conversation, that would be problematic. But it did, and that's a great thing. What we can do is grow from it. That is what matters.”
