Here’s why Kiara Advani stayed at a hostel for a week

Kiara Advani will be seen playing the introverted and shy college belle – Preeti in the film, and those who have seen the original film will agree that it is an extremely challenging role. Being a method actor, Kiara has pushed the envelope in more ways than one, so as to completely immerse herself in her character. Now hear this bit that this dedicated actor did for her role. Kiara’s character in the film stays in the college hostel. In reality, Kiara has never experienced the hostel life so, in order to understand how students stay in a hostel, she actually stayed in the hostel for one whole week.

Recounting her first-ever hostel experience, Kiara said, “Since I’m from Mumbai and also went to college in Mumbai, I had never stayed in a hostel before but my character Preeti stays in one. I really wanted to understand how life in a hostel is for young students and so I decided to stay in one for a few days. The experience was absolutely enriching and it helped me while I interacted with the students.”

On the professional front, Kiara Advani is starring with Shahid Kapoor in Kabir Singh which is set for June 21 release. It is directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the original director of Arjun Reddy.
