Delnaaz Irani was recently mired in controversies surrounding her professional life, but being a positive person, the actor says it is all behind her. Looking forward, Irani has now wrapped up filmmaker Zoya Akhtar’s Bollywood adaptation of the Archie Comics, called The Archies. 

On working with Akhtar, the 50-year-old tells us, “It is an honour to work with Zoya. She is such a fine director.”

Asked if she is expecting more offers after wrapping up, Irani asserts, “As an artiste, we are always hopeful, and one always wants to do better work and achieve more as far as roles are concerned.” She agrees that this venture will be one of the major highlights on her resume. Irani says, “Once people know that I am doing this film, there will be more offers coming. I am hopeful.” 

The Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003) actor recently cleared the air on the controversy over whether she was out of work, saying that her words were misconstrued and she was never out of work. Speaking along similar lines, Irani tells us that she is someone who believes in positivity.

“I feel the negativity has begun to surface only recently. You see people on social media talking s**t about others and pulling each other down. There was a lot of harmony before, and everybody used to praise each other. I am someone who always remains very positive. I take it as part of life; I have been part of the industry for 30 years,” the actor explains.

Irani further shares, “I know what failures are and what success is, and nothing has gone to my head. People know the real Delnaaz is an extremely chilled out person and extremely passionate about her craft. I don’t want to harm anybody, and I don’t want others to harm me.”
