Kiara Advani Height Weight Bra Size Age Biography Family Wiki Net Worth, Affairs, Marriage & much more. Alia Advani (born 31 July 1992), known professionally as Kiara Advani, is an Indian actress who works predominantly in Hindi films. After making her debut in the comedy film Fugly (2014), she played a supporting role as MS Dhoni’s wife in the sports biopic M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016).

Advani’s career advanced with a critically praised role in the Netflix anthology film Lust Stories (2018), and for playing the leading lady in the Telugu political thriller Bharat Ane Nenu (2018), and the Hindi films Kabir Singh (2019), Good Newwz (2019), Laxmii (2020) and Shershaah (2021).

Early life and Background

Kiara Advani was born to Jagdeep Advani, a Sindhi Hindu businessman and Genevieve Jaffrey, a teacher whose father was a Muslim from Lucknow and whose mother was a British Christian.

Born as Alia Advani, she changed her first name to Kiara prior to the release of her first film, Fugly, in 2014. Her choice of the name was inspired from Priyanka Chopra’s character Kiara in the film Anjaana Anjaani (2010). She has stated that it was Salman Khan’s suggestion to change her name, as Alia Bhatt was already an established actress.

The elder of two siblings, Advani has a younger brother, Mishaal. She is also related to several celebrities through her maternal family. Actors Ashok Kumar and Saeed Jaffrey are her step-great-grandfather and great-uncle, respectively, whereas model Shaheen Jaffrey is her aunt. Her mother Genevieve Advani’s step-mother is Bharti Ganguly who is the daughter of Ashok Kumar. In that respect, actress Anuradha Patel, Bharti’s daughter from her first marriage, is her step-aunt.

Early work

Advani began her acting career with the Hindi ensemble comedy film Fugly (2014). Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungamawrote, “Kiara Advani catches you completely unaware” and has the “combination of looks and talent”. Mehul S Thakkar of Deccan Chronicle found her “very striking” and said that she “shows a lot of promise”.Fugly underperformed at the box office. Two years later, Advani appeared in the sports drama M. S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016), a biopic of cricketer M. S. Dhoni who served as the former captain of Indian cricket team. She had a supporting role opposite Sushant Singh Rajput (who essayed Dhoni), as the real-life character of his wife, hotel manager Sakshi Rawat. M. S. Dhoni: The Untold Story was a major commercial success with global revenues of over ₹216 crore (US$28 million).

Advani then starred in Abbas–Mustan’s action thriller Machine (2017). It failed at the box office. She next collaborated with filmmaker Karan Johar, for their first of many films, in the Netflix anthological film Lust Stories (2018), where she starred opposite Vicky Kaushal as his sexually dissatisfied wife. Her performance received mixed reactions. Writing for NDTV, Raja Sen found her to be “positively lovely” in it. She also featured with Shahid Kapoor in the music video “Urvashi”, sung by Yo Yo Honey Singh.

Advani expanded to Telugu cinema that year, appearing with Mahesh Babu in the action film Bharat Ane Nenu (2018) from Koratala Siva, about a student who unexpectedly becomes chief minister of Andhra Pradesh. Janani K of India Today opined that she “shines in her brief role” but added that her character was “more of an eye-candy who doesn’t add any purpose to the story”. Worldwide, the film earned ₹225 crore (US$30 million), making it one of Telugu cinema’s highest grossers. She, however, failed to replicate this success with her second Telugu film, Boyapati Srinu’s Vinaya Vidheya Rama (co-starring Ram Charan). In a scathing review for The Hindu, Sangeetha Devi Dundoo wrote, “It isn’t Kiara Advani’s fault that she looks lost in the melee.” In the same year, she was seen in a guest appearance in Abhishek Varman’s ensemble period film Kalank, produced by Johar.
