‘Tired of the question of meeting face’

In an interview given to NDTV, when Kanika Kapoor was asked a question about looking like Kiara Advani, she said that she is tired of such questions. According to Kanika, everyone’s opinion is different and her own family never felt that she looked like Kiara. Responding to her comparison, she said that instead of asking the same thing continuously, the media should ask this question directly to Kiara.

What will be the reaction on meeting Kiara?

During the conversation, when Kanika was asked what would be her reaction if she ever meets Kiara Advani in future, she replied humorously:

Work got notice from the film ‘Dono’

Kanika Kapoor also revealed how she got the job in ‘Partition 1947’. He told that after seeing his work in Sunny Deol’s son Rajveer Deol’s debut film ‘Dono’, director Rajkumar Santoshi had decided to cast him for this period drama film. Releasing on August 14, this film will clash with ‘Awarapan 2’ at the box office.

Impact on audience and industry

This discussion about the star cast just before the release of the film has increased the buzz of the film on social media. After a long time, Sunny Deol’s Gadar-style action and this story set against the backdrop of 1947 partition, will decide how successful it is in drawing the audience to the theaters on the occasion of Independence Day.
