When beauty meets immense talent, think Kiara Advani. The actress has climbed up the success ladder by giving back-to-back spectacular performances. Be it Preeti in Kabir Singh, Dimple in Shershaah, or Katha in Satyaprem Ki Katha, Kiara knows how to get into the skin of the character. In Shershaah, she convinced all of us that this is how Vikram Batra and Dimple Cheema must have lived their lives.
Today, the actress turns 31. On her birthday, let`s revisit the time when Kiara Advani opened up about her experience meeting the real-life Dimple Cheema. In an exclusive interview with Radio City, the Shershaah actress shared an anecdote about meeting the character she portrayed in the movie.
Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani starrer Shershaah was based on the lives of the late armyman and his ladylove. It was on the sets of Shershaah that their love story began.

Recalling her meeting with Cheema, the actress said, "I met her in Chandigarh, all thanks to Captain Vikram Batra`s brother, Vishal Batra. This was before we began shooting for Shershaah. When I met Dimple, she had a sparkle in her eyes, and I was moved by her selflessness. When we spoke about Captain Vikram Batra, she mentioned every little detail as if it happened just yesterday."
"Dimple must have been 24 or 25 when she decided never to marry again. In the movie, the dialogue about Dimple not being willing to marry anyone other than Vikram was inspired by her. We even shot at the exact locations where these incidents happened. For example, the funeral scene was shot where Captain Vikram Batra`s last rites were performed," Kiara Advani further added.
The actress will be next seen in Game Changer alongside Ram Charan. Speculation is that she may also be a part of Hrithik Roshan`s War 2.
