Kiara Advani reacts to old comment on wanting daughter to have Kareena Kapoor’s traits

Kiara Advani on having traits of Kareena Kapoor in her daughter

On July 15, Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra celebrated a wonderful milestone: the birth of a daughter. As the couple adjusts to life with their newborn, a past comment from Kiara has unexpectedly resurfaced online — leading to some confusion and prompting her to speak up.

Shortly after the birth announcement, a social media page called Bolly Masala shared an old photo of Kiara with Kareena Kapoor, captioned: “Kiara Advani wants her daughter to have Kareena Kapoor’s qualities. She and Sidharth recently welcomed a baby girl.”

The post went viral, and while it seemed like a sweet sentiment on the surface, Kiara was quick to call out the platform for twisting the timing and context. Taking to Instagram Stories, she responded by saying the page was “putting old interviews out of context.”

The quote in question comes from an interview Kiara gave years ago while promoting Good Newwz, where she starred alongside Kareena. During a chat with film journalist Faridoon Shahryar, she was asked which of Kareena’s qualities she’d love her future daughter to have. Kiara replied with warmth and admiration:

“Her confidence, her expressions, her aura. All her qualities. She is a 10 on 10.”

At the time, she had also mentioned she’d love to have “two healthy babies” someday — a personal wish shared long before marriage or parenthood became a reality.

While Kiara has always spoken fondly of Kareena, she clearly wasn’t impressed with the resurfacing of an old interview being linked to her current moment of motherhood — a time she’s likely hoping to enjoy privately with her family.

On the work front, Kiara was last seen in War 2, starring opposite Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR. The action-packed film had a mixed critical reception but earned Rs 364.35 crore worldwide. She’s also set to make her Kannada film debut in Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown Ups, alongside Yash and an impressive ensemble cast.
