Mumbai, Aug 19
Actress Kiara Advani has spoken about her experience of working on 'Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups ' starring Yash and said the film pushed her out of her comfort zone and taught her to embrace the unfamiliar and discover new skills along the way.
Kiara shared an intriguing picture of herself from the making of the film. In the image, the actress is seen resting inside a large, transparent, bowl-shaped tank filled to the brim with water.
For the caption, she wrote: "Films have a beautiful way of making us step into worlds we've never known, sometimes quite literally. Every new character, every new set, every crazy challenge teaches you something you didn't know you were capable of."
Kiara added: "This one taught me to be comfortable with the unfamiliar, to stay curious, to keep learning and to find joy in the adventure of it all. Because growth, for me, has always been about saying yes to the things that scare you a little... and loving the journey that follows."
"Here's to new skills, new adventures, and the kind of passion that keeps you willing to dive in again and again!"
