Producer and actress Divya Khossla Kumar is gearing up for her upcoming film ‘Savi’, which also stars Anil Kapoor and Harshvardhan Rane in pivotal roles. Recently in an interview, she discussed handling box office triumphs and setbacks. She also talked about how it's often difficult for people to recognize her hard work because of her affluent upbringing.

During an interview with India Today, Divya opened up about the box office performance of her films and whether it has an impact on her. She said, “I'm someone who is very thick-skinned. I am a fighter. I truly don't fear anything in life. I don't let the external noise affect me."

She further added, "‘Yaariyan 2’ did not do well at the box office, but everyone who has seen the film has appreciated my performance, including my near and dear ones and I think that's what matters to me. Eventually, it is about people making the effort to go and watch a film and once they do, they'll know that I work very hard on every project of mine.”

Divya talked about her affluent upbringing and if she believes that people underestimate her efforts just because of her family's name. She shared, “After my first film 'Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyon' which was such a big deal for me, I got married. I was very young when I had to give up my career completely and settle down.”

Divya Khossla made headlines lately after dropping her last name ‘Kumar’ on Instagram. While this raised a lot of eyebrows and left fans confused, it was eventually revealed that Divya's decision to drop her surname was solely based on numerology.

On the work front, Divya was last seen in the film ‘Yaariyaan 2’ alongside Yash Dasgupta, Anaswara Rajan, Meezaan Jafri, Warina Hussain, Priya Prakash Varrier, and Pearl V Puri.
