Actress Kiara Advani reportedly could not secure a role in Tollywood, marking a setback in her attempt to expand into the Telugu film industry.
Kiara Advani, known for her work in Bollywood, recently tried to break into the Telugu film industry but was unsuccessful.
According to a report by CineJosh, the actress auditioned for a Telugu project but did not receive a role, indicating that her Tollywood debut did not materialise.
The setback may delay Advani’s plans to diversify her filmography, as she had expressed interest in exploring opportunities beyond Hindi cinema.
