Karan Kundrra on being stereotyped in 'rich roles'
Karan Kundrra was asked if he had ever been stereotyped or judged in auditions based on his physicality. To this end, the actor told OTTplay, "There has been a bit of a stereotype with me. I only get rich roles. But I don't disagree with the fact."
He added that filmmaker Balwinder Singh Janjua didn't force him to do Tera Kya Hoga Lovely. The director told Karan to do the film only if he found it good. "I am not just talking about him. If anybody has spent time and focused on a character and shown confidence in you, then aapki bhi duty banti hain to at least bring that physicality to the character. Acting director sambhal lega. When I go on the set with Bali paji, I say I don't know anything, you say and then we discuss. I know he is there. He can't handle the physicality. If Guggu has to look a certain way, then it has to look a certain way," mentioned Kundrra.
The actor further pointed out, "Abhi, US mein bohot wokeism chal raha hain. That is extra and it has become a joke but not with us here. Thankfully, it has not reached. We have made a very good film with a good topic and we will stick to that."
