Actress Kiara Advani says that working with filmmaker Karan Johar on Lust Stories gave her the confidence to push herself as an actress and try challenging roles.
“I have only Karan Johar to thank for that. He put his trust and faith in me and also saw the potential in me to play the character of Megha as he directed me. As Karan Johar does not direct a lot of films, it was more than a dream comes true for this opportunity to come my way. His way of directing and guiding me has strengthened my foundation as an artist and actor. I now have the confidence to push myself as an artist and take up challenging roles,” she said when asked that how her performance in digital anthology changed her image as an actress.
“I got to play a very liberating character in Lust Stories. It addresses and voices several important issues faced by women. I look forward to playing such strong female protagonists in the coming future as well,” she added.
Lust Stories, an Indian anthology film, consists of four short film segments directed by four different directors: Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee and Karan Johar.
Kiara, who wants to be the part of classic romantic film in future, says that she has been lucky as each film has brought her closer to where she wants to be.
