“Now I enjoy going to work,” says Kiara Advani

Kiara Advani has proved that if you have talent and perseverance, nothing can stop you from fulfilling your dreams. The actress, who shot to overnight fame after her much-talked-about film Kabir Singh (2019) turned out to be a massive hit at the box-office, is currently basking in the success of her latest release Good Newwz (2019). Co-starring Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Diljit Dosanjh in important roles, the comic-caper has been performing fantastically well ever since entering theatres on 27th December.

Reminiscing about her struggling days in the industry, Kiara Advani says, “It can make you feel a little low when you are just waiting for opportunities. But I feel glad that I did not give up and I went after my dream, that is why today things are looking brighter. If you have the talent then nobody can take that away from you.”

The actress went on to say that now she enjoys going to work. “Now I enjoy going to work and it is making me more and more hungry to do better. I still have a long way to go but it is very motivating when directors call you to not just praise your performance but they also dissect the scenes they liked,” she concludes.

Advani is now looking forward to her upcoming films. In 2020, her slate includes four high-profile films, featuring her is diverse characters. Her next release will be the much-awaited Laxmmi Bomb opposite Akshay Kumar. A remake of superhit Tamil horror comedy Kanchana, the movie is scheduled to release on 22nd May. Laxmmi Bomb will be followed by Indoo Ki Jawani, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Shershaah. Just like 2019, 2020 also seems to be quite promising for the talented actress.

Dhee on staying rooted, making ‘honest music’ and Tamil music’s global rise

Highlights

  • Dhee says Vari Vari emerged from a deeply personal and reflective period in her life
  • The singer believes listeners worldwide are searching for “new sounds and new stories”
  • She says remaining rooted in her identity has always been central to her music
  • Dhee hopes to release more albums and perform more frequently in the years ahead

A song shaped by reflection rather than intention

For Dhee, Vari Vari was not born out of a deliberate attempt to move in a new direction. Instead, it arrived during a period of reflection that naturally began influencing the music she was making. Speaking exclusively, the singer described how many of her recent songs have mirrored experiences unfolding in her own life, making them feel more personal than planned.

That emotional undercurrent eventually found its way into Vari Vari. Conversations with lyricist Vivek (Vivek Anna) slowly shaped the track, which grew from discussions around love and human connection. Rather than following a formula, the song evolved organically and became a reflection of thoughts she had already been carrying.
