Kiara Advani recently attended an event on the sidelines of the Cannes Film Festival, catching everyone’s attention not only with her stunning pink and black gown but also with her unexpected accent during an interview. The actress spoke to the media on the red carpet of the Red Sea Film Foundation's Women in Cinema gala dinner, and her new accent quickly became a topic of conversation.
In the interview, Kiara shared her excitement about being at Cannes for the first time, describing it as «very, very humbling» to be invited, especially as she celebrates 10 years in the industry. Her notably American accent while pronouncing words like «very» and «at» led fans to speculate if she was trying out a new accent.
Twitter users quickly took notice. «I love her, but why that accent?» questioned one fan. Another commented, “Does Kiara Advani think she's a Kim Kardashian when she talks like that? Please stfu, and stop that cringe accent. You're not cool or funny for that,” while someone else added, «Indian accent is in no way bad or a degrade then why do these people have to not choose it n ruin the whole damn thing.»
The backlash continued with users on platforms like Reddit’s BollyBlindNGossips expressing disappointment. Comments ranged from questioning why she felt the need to adopt a new accent to outright disapproval of her choice. «How is she talking about humbling humbling humbling — while putting on a ridiculous accent, and not being herself?» one user remarked.
