Nadaaniyan marked Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim Ali Khan's Bollywood debut. He shared screen space in the OTT film with Khushi Kapoor, the daughter of Boney Kapoor and Sridevi. After its Netflix release, Ibrahim and Khushi received massive criticism and trolling for their performances.
Dia Mirza, who was also a part of the romantic drama, has now empathised with her young co-stars. In an interview, the actress revealed that it reminded her of the 'vicious' attacks she received in her early years. Dia Mirza empathises with Ibrahim Ali Khan, Khushi Kapoor In an interview with Mid-Day, Dia recalled how she was criticised in her initial years.
The actress could empathise with her Nadaaniyan co-stars as she had similar experience back in the day. "We didn’t have social media then, but I was burnt at the stake. So, I empathise with how hard a personal attack can hit.
The only privilege I had was that I was a beauty title holder. Beyond that, I didn’t have any support system," Dia said. The actress further revealed she was made to believe that she would be 'obscure' by her 40s.
However, one film changed her perception of life in 40s. "For me, Dhak Dhak was a clarion call. It changed my perception of how life would be in my 40s.
The industry had made me believe that by my 40s, I’d be obscure," she added.
