Bollywood actress Kiara Advani sat down for an interview with Indian publication and expressed her thoughts about fans saying she resembles veteran actor Hema Malini.
The 29-year-old said, “It’s truly an honor to be compared to Hema ji, she’s so beautiful. But honestly, I’ve always found this compliment weird. I don’t know how to react to it. I mean, it’s great to be compared to her, but I am also my own person. I like the way I look and I want to look like myself.”
Advani then went on and talked about a fan Aishwarya who is being called her lookalike, she stated, “I don’t really like the word doppelganger. I know what she’s doing is flattering, but what’s interesting to me is that she’s a doctor in real life. She’s her own personality and it’s very sweet that she likes to recreate my looks.”
She concluded, “I’ve been told in the past that I look like someone and that’s great, but at the end of the day, you have to be the person who you really are."
