5 Minutes With Kiara Advani
Cosmopolitan India|April 2017

The Fugly and MS Dhoni actor talks about her first reaction to fame, the terrors of being typecast, and industry myths that just aren’t true!

Saumyaa Vohra
5 Minutes With Kiara Advani

You saw her first in the riveting role of Devi in Fugly, and then as the equally compelling MS Dhoni’s wife, Sakshi Singh Dhoni, in the much-acclaimed biopic of the cricketing star. Now, with tonnes of other cool projects in the works, Kiara Advani is sitting pretty—and chatting with an easy wisdom well beyond her years...

Take us back to being offered your first film. Pure chance?

“Oh no, no. I always wanted to act. Growing up, I was always mimicking all my favourite actors and imitating them in front of the mirror. I got super-lucky with Fugly—I just auditioned for it off the bat, and got the part!”
