The movie Thank You For Coming, which was only recently released in theaters on October 6 received mixed reviews by the audience as well as critics. The movie, which is directed by Karan Boolani, stars Bhumi Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Dolly Singh, Kusha Kapila, and Shibani Bedi.

Rhea is the daughter of Anil Kapoor and comes from a family with a past in the film industry. She recently spoke candidly about understanding her privilege in movies during a recent chat. Rhea Kapoor was recently questioned by DNA India on the luxury and process of making movies. Rhea stated that she is "aware of the privilege she has" even though her father Anil Kapoor is an actor, her sister Sonam Kapoor is also an actress, and her uncle Boney Kapoor is a well-known producer.

"The fact that people look at me and think ‘Why do you need to work’. I am not deluded," Rhea said. But if there is one thing Rhea is completely aware of, it is that if she is working hard to make a film and the filmmaking process, it is possible because she genuinely cares as she stated that she makes films with "an impact in mind."

About Thank You For Coming

Despite a limited release (Rs 1 crore from only 500 screens), Thank You For Coming brought in a surprisingly respectable figure at the box office. Anil Kapoor makes a brief appearance in the movie alongside Bhumi Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Kusha Kapila, Dolly Singh, Shibani Bedi, Dolly Ahluwalia, Sushant Digvikar, and Karan Kundra. Before its theatrical debut on October 6, the movie had its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival last month.
