Kiara Advani recently addressed a resurfaced old interview clip where she stated she wanted her daughter to possess qualities similar to Kareena Kapoor Khan. This clarification came after Kiara and her husband, Sidharth Malhotra, welcomed their first child, a baby girl, in July.

The old video clip went viral shortly after the baby's birth, prompting Kiara to respond directly to a social media post that linked her past comments to her newborn daughter. The post in question, shared by a social media page, featured a picture of Kiara and Kareena with a caption highlighting Kiara's wish for her daughter to inherit Kareena's qualities.

Kiara responded to the post by stating, "This was said during the promotions of our film Good Newwz. Kindly stop putting old interviews out of context". Her comment sparked mixed reactions among social media users. Some applauded her for addressing the issue directly and calling out the misrepresentation of her statement. Others felt her reply was unnecessary or too harsh, as she had indeed made the statement in the past.

The original statement was made during an interview with Faridoon Shahryar during the promotion of Good Newwz, a film where Kiara shared screen space with Kareena Kapoor. When asked what qualities of Kareena she would want her future daughter to have, Kiara responded, "Her confidence, her expressions, her aura. All her qualities. She is a 10 on 10". Akshay Kumar, her co-star, added "radiant face".

Kiara's clarification highlights the challenges faced by celebrity parents navigating social media and the tendency for past statements to be taken out of context. While some appreciated Kiara setting the record straight, others speculated whether celebrities always mean what they say during promotional events. One user wrote, "Good to see her calling them out, but she does not want her daughter to have qualities like Kareena Kapoor now, or they just say things for the sake of it during promotions, like how their movie is the best, even though it turns out to be bad?".

Following the birth of their daughter, Kareena Kapoor Khan congratulated the couple, sharing their announcement post on her Instagram story with the message, "Congratulations to the lovely couple... God bless your little angel". Kiara Advani will next be seen in "Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown Ups".
