A debut film made her an overnight sensation.
The next film almost ended her career.
In 2020, Kiara Advani faced heavy criticism after the release of Laxmii, the Hindi remake of the Tamil hit Kanchana.
The film was already surrounded by controversy after its title was changed from Laxmmi Bomb to Laxmii following objections from several groups who felt the original title hurt religious sentiments.
When the movie released, it received mixed-to-negative reviews, and many viewers criticized the performances, screenplay, and remake itself.
Although Akshay Kumar was the lead, Kiara Advani also became part of the online backlash as the film dominated social media discussions.
The controversy raised a bigger question:
Are actors judged too harshly for a film's failure?
A movie involves writers, directors, editors, producers, and hundreds of crew members.
Yet when something goes wrong, it's usually the faces on the poster who receive most of the criticism.
Years later, Kiara moved on to deliver successful films, proving that one controversial project doesn't define an actor's career.
It also reminds us how quickly public opinion can change in the film industry.
One Friday can make you a superstar.
Another Friday can make you trend for completely different reasons.
What's your opinion?
Should actors be blamed for a film's failure...
Or should responsibility be shared across the entire filmmaking team?
