Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani`s Kabir Singh created quite a stir upon its release in 2019. While the film catapulted the actress to a different league, it also got her criticism for accepting the role of Preeti. The Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial was slammed for being misogynistic and glorifying violence like slapping a girl. Now, in her latest interview with Femina, Kiara addressed the hullabaloo around Kabir Singh.
Kiara, who is among the current leading ladies in Tinsel Town, defended her character, Preeti, and said she will never play a role she dislikes. I have never played a character I didn`t like. If I don`t like my character, I better not be doing the movie. We need to accept that there are all sorts of people. We can`t cancel everyone," Kiara shared.
