Actress Kiara Advani is of the opinion that filmmaker Karan Johar has been wrongly blamed for nepotism in the Bollywood. The actress said that even though Johar has been targeted for working with and launching star kids in Bollywood, she found support in him when she was struggling and was getting rejected by designers.
Advani opened up about this while promoting her upcoming film 바카라Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2바카라 with Karthik Aryan durinv an interview with Film Companion. Advani had nothing but sweet words for Johar and designer Manish Malhotra. She said, "These are people who are supremely successful, but they didn바카라t have that apprehension, they didn바카라t come to me only because I was successful.바카라
Advani then mentioned that during her initial years in Bollywood, she asked her agency to pitch her in for a Karan Johar movie, but they didn바카라t push for her. She said that it was just by chance that she encountered and got casted in Johar바카라s 바카라Lust Stories바카라 in 2018. Talking about Malhotra, Advani said that despite being rejected by many designers, he supported her.
바카라At that point, there was this thing, and Manish is one of those people who never looked at it like that. He never looked at it like, 바카라I바카라ll give somebody something because they바카라re successful바카라. Even Karan. I know he gets so much hate for nepotism and all of that, but he took me when I was a nobody, and nobody told him to,바카라 she said. Kiara Advani said that even though she now understood that 바카라at the end of the day, this is a business,바카라 she felt that 바카라certain people who바카라ve reached great heights in their fields, they don바카라t have to live up to this social norm.바카라
Over the years, Malhotra has dressed countless celebrities on and off screen. He even dressed Advani in a gorgeous lehenga for her sister Ishita Advani바카라s wedding in Goa in 2022. Advani was last seen in 바카라Shershaah바카라 with her rumoured boyfriend Sidharth Malhotra.
