Kalki Koechlin was denied entry at Filmfare Awards because she arrived in Swift; says some stars with Audis live in 1BHK
Last year, a significant debate emerged within the Bollywood industry concerning the rising costs associated with actors' entourages. In a recent conversation with Aleena Dissects, Kalki Koechlin opened up about how actors go to extremes for image-building and recalled being stopped from entering an award show because of her car. (Also Read: Kalki Koechlin says Bollywood is going through recession: 'They're re-releasing films, firing creative teams') Kalki explained that not carrying an entourage to display star power might impact the opportunities she receives. She said, 'For years, I arrived at the Filmfare Awards in my Swift, and my dress would be bigger than the car. People would stop the vehicle and wouldn't let it enter the venue, and then I had to show my invite and say, 'It's me.' That's just who I am — I value freedom and everything else that comes with it. I don't want that kind of lifestyle because I want to be spontaneous. When you don't have an entourage, there's less chance of being spotted, and fewer people following you. The only place it's a problem is at airports — I've dedicated that 1.5 hours at the airport to my fans, because it's back-to-back selfies.' Kalki acknowledged that public relations and image-building are necessary to a certain extent. She added that it's important for some major stars to have bodyguards and PR personnel for safety. Talking about the lengths actors go to for maintaining an image, she said, 'I know people who live in a tiny 1BHK but drive an Audi. They'll show up to meetings in an Audi with a driver, but they live in a small hole. For me, freedom is really important. I do spend money — but on living in a beautiful house in Goa and flying back and forth to Mumbai. That's where all my money goes.' Kalki was last seen in the Tamil romantic action thriller Nesippaya, directed by Vishnuvardhan. The film featured Akash Murali in his acting debut, alongside Aditi Shankar, R. Sarathkumar, Prabhu, and Khushbu. She will next appear in the English-language film Emma and Angel.

Nesippaya OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Akash Murali and Aditi Shankar's Tamil film
Nesippaya OTT Release Date: Debutant Akash Murali and Aditi Shankar recently headlined this Tamil film, which opened to positive reviews in theatres. Released globally on 14th January, the Vishnuvardhan directorial is finally ready for its digital debut. Watch Nesippaya on SunNXT starting May 16, 2025. The romantic thriller enjoys a strong 9.5/10 rating on IMDb to convince you to stream. Nesippaya's cast and crew Other than the lead duo, Nesippaya also stars R. Sarathkumar, Prabhu, Khushbu, Kalki Koechlin, Shiv Panditt, Raja, George Kora, Vikkals Vikram, Mathew Varghese, Sriranjani, Parvathi T and Prajna Ravi among others. This Yuvan Shankar Raja musical is produced by XB Film Creators, cinematographed by Cameron Eric Bryson and edited by A. Sreekar Prasad. Nesippaya's plot overview In 2016, Arjun (Akash Murali) and Diya (Aditi Shankar) are college sweethearts whose relationship faces challenges when Diya receives a job offer in Portugal. Their bond deteriorates due to misunderstandings and differing priorities, leading to a breakup. Seven years later, Arjun learns that Diya has been arrested in Portugal for the murder of Karthik Adhinarayanan, the son of a powerful businessman. Determined to clear her name, Arjun travels to Portugal, where he teams up with Diya's lawyer, Indrani (Kalki Koechlin), to uncover the truth. Their investigation reveals a web of deceit involving Karthik's family, leading to a dramatic confrontation that tests the limits of love and justice. Nesippaya's review The Times of India rated the movie 2.5 out of 5, and a part of their review read, 'In Nesippaya, there's romance, comedy, action, suspense and drama. To the film's credit, the cuts between different genres and timelines have been done smoothly, without taking you out of the proceedings. But even when Nesippaya is pieced together beautifully, the romance and mystery portions fail to work individually. Once Nesippaya goes into full-on thriller mode, it tries to stick to a standard and seen-before template, which further works against the film's favour.'
