Kiara Advani and Shahid Kapoor graced the Koffee couch in this week’s episode and the duo made sure the show was entertaining throughout with their funny, heartfelt and quirky revelations and stories. One of the things that got out in the public domain on the show was that Kiara’s role in her Netflix project Lust Stories was earlier offered to Kriti Sanon. Karan Johar directed his short film in the anthology that had Kiara Advani and Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. In the film, Kiara’s character Megha has an orgasm in front of the whole family and Kiara was appreciated for her acting skills and the way she pulled off that particular part.

Karan continued, “I thought everybody’s mom would stand in line, not allowing their daughters. It’s actually a very empowering story. It’s about a woman’s right to pleasure. So I met Kiara at Manish Malhotra’s house, and I just saw her, I knew her of course, I knew her as Alia Advani then…so I met her and I asked can you come tomorrow and meet me, it’s for a short film. She came and she heard it and then she was a little zoned out.
