On the other hand, Kabir Singh lead actress Kiara Advani thanked everyone associated with the film on Sunday. She shared a heartfelt post on Instagram where she thanked her co-star Shahid Kapoor and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga for the film.
She wrote, “#1MonthOfKabirSingh Every time I have tried to put down my feelings on ‘Kabir Singh’ I don’t know where to begin, this attempt will not do justice either, to how truly grateful I am, to my team, and the audience for making our film what it has become today.”
It was a year ago when she stepped into the shoes of Preeti — her character — whom she described as “shy, demure, and basically the complete opposite of me”.
“But I also saw her strength, conviction, her love and her passion and couldn’t help but feel for the love story that you all rooted for with me. Kabir, aka @shahidkapoor my co-star, confidant and friendly through this journey who completed and made this story so real and believable.
“Already missing your craziness mama, couldn’t have been luckier to work together on this special film.”
She also thanked her film’s director Sandeep Vanga.
“His conviction to stay true to the story and make it so unapologetically, his passion for films, his craziness and honesty gave us the opportunity to play characters that were flawed, imperfect and so real that you can’t stop yourself from feeling for them,” wrote Kiara.
“Our amazing producers @ashwinvarde @muradkhetani @its_bhushankumar @@tseries.official for making this gem of a film! @santha_dop my incredible dop for capturing every moment of this love story so beautifully.”
She even thanked the music team and the production team and the audience for ” loving, accepting and rooting for this love story.”
Shahid Kapoor also commented on her long thank you note by saying, “This award winning speech also deserves an award.”
