Biography

Who Is Kiara Advani?

Kiara Advani was born in Bombay, Maharashtra, India in 1991 and is 35 years old. Credited on films since 2018, as an actor. The background, training and the roles that shaped the career.

Kiara Advani, born Alia Advani on 31 July 1991 in Bombay, Maharashtra, India, is a prominent Indian actress who has made a remarkable impact across Hindi and Telugu cinema. Coming from a diverse heritage—her father Jagdeep Advani is a Sindhi Hindu businessman and her mother Genevieve Jaffrey a teacher of mixed Lucknowi, Scottish, Irish, Portuguese, and Spanish ancestry—Kiara grew up surrounded by artistic influences, including step‑great‑grandfather actor Ashok Kumar and great‑uncle Saeed Jaffrey. After completing a BA in mass communications from Jai Hind College, she changed her first name to Kiara, inspired by Priyanka Chopra’s character in Anjaana Anjaani, following Salman Khan’s suggestion to avoid confusion with Alia Bhatt. She debuted in the 2014 comedy Fugly, which, despite its box‑office failure, earned her a Screen Awards nomination for Best Female Debut and highlighted her striking screen presence.

Her breakthrough arrived with the 2016 biopic M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, portraying Sakshi Rawat, which catapulted her into mainstream recognition. Subsequent roles in Lust Stories (2018), Bharat Ane Nenu (2018), and the record‑breaking Kabir Singh (2019) showcased her versatility, from nuanced portrayals of dissatisfied spouses to leading lady in high‑grossing romantic dramas. Kiara’s performances in Good Newwz and Shershaah earned critical acclaim and an IIFA Award for Best Supporting Actress, while her later projects such as Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022), Jugjugg Jeeyo (2022), and Satyaprem Ki Katha (2023) cemented her status as one of the highest‑paid and most sought‑after actresses in India. Beyond films, she is a celebrated brand ambassador for luxury and lifestyle products, supports various social causes, and continues to expand her artistic repertoire with upcoming ventures in both Hindi and regional cinema.
