Karan thought I'd be apprehensive doing another Netflix film: Kiara on 'Guilty'

Kiara Advani returns to Netflix with "Guilty", her second outing with the streamer after "Lust Stories", and the actor says filmmaker Karan Johar thought she would be apprehensive about coming on board for another project on the OTT platform.

Kiara made her debut in 2014 with "Fugly", but found acclaim with Johar's directorial segment in the 2018's anthology.

"I was in the car with Karan when he told me he has heard a narration and it's a very strong role. He said it's the most thrilling script he had heard. He wanted me to hear it and told me it was on Netflix.

"But he thought I may have an apprehension in my mind because I had signed films like 'Kabir Singh' and 'Good Newwz' but in my head, the platform doesn't matter. What matters is the content," Kiara told reporters here.

Having seen the reach of web, the actor said she had no qualms about returning to the medium.

"As an actor you want to reach out as many people as possible. Fortunately, the script that came to me was 'Guilty'. 'Lust Stories' was a game changer for me. So there was never a second thought about doing 'Guilty'. It seemed like a perfect opportunity."
"Basically, consent is a victim of perception. And it's true because what may be consensual to you might not be consensual to someone else. How each one of us looks at it."
