Kiara Advani’s name was Alia and has a connection with Priyanka Chopra

Bollywood is where name is the main thing. Viewers become acquainted with a star with their name and that is the means by which one turns into a popular. Subsequently, two stars with a similar name may create turmoil.

Not many know that Kiara's original name is Aaliya and the actress changed it on Salman Khan's suggestion. On a chat show, Kiara Advani made the big revelation.
She said:

Aaliya is my first name. Salman Khan suggested me to change it because of Alia Bhatt because there can't be two actresses with the same name in Bollywood.

However, did you know Priyanka Chopra’s film inspired her to take Kiara as a name?
Kiara said:

The name, Kiara, was inspired from Priyanka Chopra's movie Anjaana Anjaani, where she introduces herself as, 'Hi, I'm Kiara.' I thought, 'What a beautiful name. If I have a daughter, I'll call her Kiara.' But before that I needed a name for myself. (Smiles) So, I took it on. My name has been Kiara since my debut in 2014. I didn't want to confuse the audience with Alia Bhatt, an established superstar. It just felt like the right thing to do - to have your own identity. Why have two Alias?
