Kiara Advani has had a good year both in her professional and personal lives. The actress got married to Sidharth Malhotra and is even receiving rave reviews for her performance in Satyaprem Ki Katha. In her recent interview, Kiara Advani said that her father wanted her to pursue academics instead of acting. It was only after he had watched Aamir Khan starrer 3 Idiots, he changed his mind.
In an interview with Film Companion, the actress recalled, “He would try and dissuade me from acting as any protective father, who is not from this industry, would. But I was like, ‘No dad this what I want to do,’ but it was after that movie that we as a family realised, even I as a person realised that if I never give this a shot, if this is something I am truly passionate about and if I don’t even try once, for myself, just to know whether I am able to do it, if somebody wants to watch me, if I will be taken in a film.”
She added, “My father realised that ‘let my kids do whatever they are passionate about because I never want them to turn around and regret that they never tried it.’ So, each of us had a different take away from that film. But that movie in many ways is responsible for my parents supporting me and I am here today because I had that support. So movies have the magic of leaving that kind of impact on us.”
Meanwhile, Kiara Advani will next star in Game Changer with Ram Charan. She also has War 2 with Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR. ALSO READ: Kiara Advani reveals she had auditioned for Aamir Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha; says, “I really must have been terrible”
