Kiara Advani Doesn't Believe In Toxic Relationships Like That In Kabir Singh, Says "It’s Conflicting For Me"

The box office shattering Kabir Singh may have been in the eye of storm but it certainly gave Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani the biggest hit of their individual careers, making 2019 a very special year for them. Kiara in the movie played a docile Preeti in the film and there was a lot of criticism that came her way for accepting the role.

Kiara Advani has for the first time opened about why she signed the film and accepted that as a person it was a conflicting role to play. At the same time, she was of the opinion that she had to be true to the part as nobody would have accepted her to be the character if she didn’t.

Kiara Advani spoke to Asian Age about the toxic relationship portrayed in the movie and the criticism that came her way, “It’s conflicting for me, but as an actor, I have played a role. I do not believe in all this, but as a character, if I did not believe in Preeti, then it would have been noticed. I am playing a character and I look at that as my job. I have to put forth the best. The film has the journey of this faulty character, but I will never tolerate this in a relationship,” she said.

Earlier this year Kiara had written a heartfelt note about Kabir Singh as the film completed a month-long run in theatres and wrote on Instagram, “Every time I have tried to put down my feelings on Kabir Singh I don’t know where to begin, this attempt will not do justice either, to how truly grateful I am, to my team, and the audience for making our film what it has become today. A year ago I stepped into the shoes of Preeti, shy, demure, and basically the complete opposite of me. But I also saw her strength, conviction, her love and her passion and couldn’t help but feel for the love story that you all rooted for with me.”

The actress will next be seen in Good Newwz where she is paired opposite Diljit Dosanjh. The film releases in theatres on 27 December 2019.
