Kiara Advani is on her way upward and onwards right from the moment she entered the film industry in 2014. Nine years into the industry as an actor, she has definitely carved a niche for herself with the kind of roles she picks which not a lot of actors are able to successfully do so. She has challenged herself as an artist every step of the way and is also credited for breaking the lull Hindi cinema was in due to the pandemic with her film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. What better day than Kiara Advani’s 31st birthday, to talk about the five unconventional roles she has played so far? These five films are a hard-hitting take on society’s mindset towards women too.

1. Fugly (2014)

This film starred Kiara Advani, Jimmy Sheirgill, Mohit Marwah, Vijender Singh, and Arfi Lamba. Its plot reflected how policemen often take undue advantage of their unfirm and exploit civilians instead of offering protection. In this film, her character gets groped by a man, and instead of nabbing the perpetrator, he looks at this as an opportunity to mint money.

2. Lust Stories (2018)

Kiara Advani delivered the most memorable performance in this Netflix anthology film that sees sex and pleasure through the perspective of a woman. The film largely talked about how women are not expected to have sexual desires or libido and are supposed to accept whatever their partner has to offer in bed.

3. Kabir Singh (2019)

This is one of the most controversial films of Kiara Advani’s career showed how most women end up forgiving their abusive partners and getting back with them because they believe their partner loves them and that’s why they hurt them.

4. Guilty (2020)

This Kiara Advani movie talked about how men often end up getting away with abuse and it is the woman who has to deal with the trauma of it all her life. The film is set against the backdrop of the #MeToo movement on social media.
