November 12, 2024: An old video of Kiara Advani referring to herself as a “nobody” in Bollywood has recently resurfaced on social media, reigniting the never-ending insider vs outsider debate. The clip shows Kiara expressing gratitude to filmmaker Karan Johar for believing in her during her early days, but many netizens were quick to call out her statement, questioning her “outsider” status.
Fans and critics took to social media to share their opinions, with one user on Reddit listing Kiara’s influential connections, including ties to Salman Khan, Juhi Chawla, and family relations to actors Saeed Jaffrey and Ashok Kumar. They pointed out that Kiara’s background doesn’t quite align with the “nobody” label. Another netizen compared her to Shraddha Kapoor, stating, “If Shraddha Kapoor can be an outsider then why can’t Kiara be one?” Others shared a similar sentiment, with one commenting, “Kiara, Shraddha, and Ranveer are not outsiders.”
The resurfaced clip even spliced in a snippet of Kartik Aaryan from a podcast, where he discussed how “everyone today is trying to be an outsider,” adding another layer to the ongoing debate.
Despite the criticisms, Kiara continues to build her career with high-profile projects. She will soon be seen in Game Changer alongside Ram Charan and has also joined the cast of War 2 opposite Hrithik Roshan. The debate around who qualifies as an “outsider” might not end anytime soon, but Kiara is staying focused on her work.
